Describe your ideal week.

My ideal week would be simple.

Days would be 28 hours long, and I would only work four days a week while still putting in the usual 40 hours of work. I would still work 8am to 5pm, but with the extra four hours in the day it would mean that clocks would go to 14 instead of 12 so that the extra two hours needed to fulfill the four ten-hour work days would be accounted for.

I would be able to sleep a perfect eight hours every night. I would sleep from 13 o’clock in the evening until 7 o’clock in the morning. Combined with my work schedule, this would mean I would have eight hours after work to get things done or have fun. Thursday nights would be game night with my Magic group, and instead of only getting a few hours to play we would get up to five or six.

Working Monday through Thursday for a four day work week would mean I have all day Friday to do whatever I wanted. I could probably pick up streaming again for about six hours on Fridays and then maybe three to four hours a couple nights during the week. I would also spend extra time writing and reading on Friday’s.

Saturday’s and Sunday’s would still be relatively similar to what they are now. Family time, grocery shopping, cleaning and doing laundry, maybe even some meal prepping.

Also, with the added time in the evenings, it would be easier to make a consistent schedule for going to the gym.

Any post-work hours I don’t have specific ideas for how to fill in can be flexible and used to play games or work on more writing. Probably more writing, so I can actually get stuff done.

Well, that’s how I would do it, and although it’s not possible, I can still dream.
