I can't automate most of my routine tasks, and I'm not sure I would if I could: eating, sleeping, taking the bike to work, talking to people, ... I do automate many of my computer related tasks. Since I'm a fan of the command line, small perl scripts, shell scripts and aliases do a lot of "work" for me.
