Response: Approaches to What?

I feel like Perec is trying to awaken us to the fact that we, as individuals and a society, have formed habits and lifestyles that are free from question. He suggests that maybe we should investigate our lives for those habits and question them in order to break the mold and embrace our lives as normal or complex as they may be.

HABITS:

looking at myself in the mirror

running water while brushing my teeth

putting the right shoe on before the left

tugging at my shirt

going pee every morning when I wake up

sticking one foot out of the covers

sleeping on my back

smelling someone I know when they walk past me

holding my breath when someone I don't know walks past me
