Marlene said, "I'm impressed." this morning. That is always a good way to start the morning. You see it only took me six minutes this morning.
No we are not talking about that. We are talking about my being able to wake up, get showered and dressed in 6 minutes. I had never really noticed the actual time, but I do know that I am pretty fast in the morning. I think it goes back to living close to College and wanting to sleep as much as I could.
As a guy, the clothing selection is much easier. I usually wear brown shoes, dockers, and a polo shirt. That means I don't waste time on clothing selection. The shoes are probably where most women get stuck. I only wear one pair of shoes during the week. Shoe selection alone could take an hour for a woman. Dockers are also a godsend in the morning ritual. All of my shirts will go with my dockers. I make sure of this when I am buying the shirts.
The last thing that really helps a guy is that we don't have to spend any time on makeup. I think women have bamboozled themselves into this morning ritual. Women look better naturally than with makeup. Sure you might want it to accent some features when going out at night, but it should not be part of a daily thing. Luckily, Marlene does not wear that much make up, but I have known girls that can spend an hour messing with the stuff.
