Do
Work nights?
"The mountains are calling and I must go, and I will work on while I can, studying incessantly." -John Muir
"Be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed." -Richard Adams, Watership Down
Do not. Now at any rate, but I did evening shifts at least once a week until I retired.
Buy new clothes to look better for a job interview?
Do not (though I probably will when I'm looking for my next job).
Watch all the credits at the end of a movie?

Do, though not always. But there's often nice music.
Buy a magazine if the cover story looks interesting?
Some days you battle yourself and other monsters. Some days you just make soup.
Do. Which is naughty of me. .
Do crossword puzzles, cryptic crosswords, wordsearch and other magazine puzzles?
Do. I try to get the free morning bus & train newspaper's crossword and easy sudoku done before I arrive at work.
Have to pop a mug of coffee or tea into the microwave to reheat after letting it get lukewarm while distracted by something?
There, shining in the sunrise, larger than they had seen him before, shaking his mane (for it had apparently grown again) stood Aslan himself.
"...when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor's stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backwards."
Do not. In such a circumstance, I throw the drink away and make a fresh one.
Book train tickets in advance?
Do not, as a rule. These days for local travel we use Opal cards, a similar arrangement to London's Oyster cards.
Use public transport whenever possible?
Do not. If it's available and convenient, I will try to use it, but it's not usually.
Use an umbrella when it rains?
Some days you battle yourself and other monsters. Some days you just make soup.
Do not. Not enough rain to make it worth my while getting an umbrella ready for action.
Wear weatherproof jackets or ponchos when it rains?
Do.
Make any sort of fiber craft?
Some days you battle yourself and other monsters. Some days you just make soup.
Do (though not very well or often).
Listen to music while doing work?

Do not. Though I used to do so before I retired from work.
Watch only the television programs you really want to watch?
Do, unless the TV is already on or I don't have the remote. Although, I typically don't want to watch anything at all and just curl up with a book.
Go to an actual library?
"To the shining eastern sea, I give you Queen Lucy, the Valiant."
-Aslan, The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe (movie)
"Don't, die kids! Dying is bad for your heath!"
-My friend Alex
Do. I not only go to an actual local library but until I retired, I worked in another actual library.
Read daily newspapers in print?
