bachelor stuff you used to do

well, my lady is moving in with me this month, buying me clothes and generally cleaning up the place lately. I think you can see where things are headed. Don't get me wrong, I'm happier than I've been in a while and look forward to being a married man. but it got me thinking about all the bachelor habits I used to have that would make the ladies turn and run.

to start it off, I used to never buy shampoo. For several years I just washed my hair with bar soap. I also had like 2 bath towels which only got washed probably twice a month. I would eat "little smokies" sausages for breakfast lunch and dinner. If I was feeling fancy I would wrap them in croissant dough. My futon frame was held in the upright "couch" position by an old guitar stand. Had a Kung-fu party when I decided to get rid of my old entertainment center where we basically just kicked the thing to bits and carried it to the dumpster piece by piece. I had a "wifi satellite dish" hanging from the ceiling, constructed from an old vegetable steamer so I could steal internet from the coffee shop next door, similar to this one: http://www.instructables.com/id/Uni-...ange-Extender/

After my grandmother passed away I moved into her house for a while to fix the place up. First task, pull up all the old carpet and padding. Unfortunately it was few months before I could put down new carpet, so I just moved my bed and furniture into the house while it still had bare concrete floors. I also had my drumkit set up in the middle of my bedroom.

When I first got out of college, my daily routine was: get off work, buy six-pack, read the internet and play drums until six-pack was gone, go to bed, repeat.

so let's hear it, what's the most bachelor stuff you used to (or currently) do?
