Tired

This fatherhood thing is tiring. I want to write something insightful or funny or otherwise entertaining, but I just don’t have it in me. My day today:

  • 5:00 – Rise and shine
  • 6:00 – After a leisurely breakfast (gotta read that newspaper) cycle to work
  • 6:45 – Showered and working where I spend hundreds of dollars, work on projects, and have a 3 hours of meetings
  • 3:45 – Cycle home
  • 4:30 – Arrive at home, change, and eat dinner with family
  • 5:30 – Spend the next 45 minutes convincing a 2 year old that she really does want to go to the park
  • 6:15 – Go to park
  • 7:30 – Return home and play requested Barney video
  • 7:40 – Change remarkably passive 2 year old into PJs
  • 7:45 – Steal some relaxation and read a bit of Shadow of the Giant as Barney sings and dances
  • 8:15 – Is Barney over so soon? Story time!
  • 8:50 – My shift’s over! Damn… time to go shopping
  • 10:00 – Write a boring blog post

Jealous?

    This is just the sort of post I like. I always wonder how others are spending their lives. Me? I’m home sick today for the second day in a row and am wondering how much longer I’m willing to have a schedule that’s peppered with bringing my work home with me.
