RedBubble Ritual

I eat sandwiches one layer at a time and chew an even number of times on each side of my mouth. This ritual is a bit strange.

Each morning I log on to RedBubble and go for a cruise through my favourite places. This ritual isn’t strange, so I thought I’d share.

It starts with a morning coffee. Then I…
I scroll through my activity feed and open anything interesting to have a peek.
Check my bubblemail
Visit my groups and check for new messages and forum threads
Have a flick through the main forums
See how the ideas I’ve voted for are going and check out any new ones
Browse recent journals and see what new people are uploading.
See if anyone needs some help
By this point I will have run out of coffee and will either need a loo break, or to get another coffee.

I’m sure when I started writing this I was leading up to a point. So, to distract you from my ‘lack of having a point’ I will instead show you some fluffy kittens

    Mine starts with a morning coffee, too.
    Then a trip through my Feeds, beginning with New Works and ending with Features.
    Then I go through my Groups and Moderate any submitted works and check on Challenges and Forums.
    Then I check the Homepage and “ooh” and “aah” over the way each image gels with the others.
    Then I check my Art tab and organize my works by their numbers. (OCD, anyone?)
    Then I pour another cuppa and browse the main Art tab on Recent works and go back to the last image I viewed the night before; applying NSFW filters as needed.

    ... addicted … (happily so!)

    You do what with your sandwiches. Does you husband to be know!

    firstly, the sandwich thing… you’re not eating sandwiches. you’re eating various food items. they may have come delivered in sandwich form, but they cease to become a sandwich once dismantled.

    secondly, I have a very similar routine (minus the important RB officer stuff) right up until the whole fluffy kitten thing.

    I am sure that I have seen Jo wearing one of Kreddible Trout’s fluffy kitten T’s hence why I am wondering the real reason for the distraction to a page I have never seen before

    Yay! Fluffy Kittens! I have ADD, so fluffy kittens are always just as good as having a point. :)

    Nice ritual – mine starts with a coffee and an attempt at a Photo For The Day if possible. Then redubble and the radio while at work, waiting for the inevitable clicking of the clock to Starting Time, at which point the countdown to lunch begins!

    Ha ha.. here am I in my bathrobe having done that very same thing: logged onto RedBubble first thing!
