We’re creatures of habit. We get up at around the same time, eat the same breakfast, leave for work promptly on the clock, and so on. Routines bring comfort as we know what we are doing, when. Monday through Friday we know how to plan, what to expect, what our needs are.

            Weekends give us flexibility, only if we desire it. Some do the same things every weekend, unless something arises that disrupts that routine. Imagine being invited to a party or to attend a play. You might want to see the play, but are uncomfortable at parties.

            Your task is to write a story in which your character’s routines are interrupted.

            Have fun with this one.
