I personally would not want to change any diapers but my Childrens. The one thing I don't miss is changing a shitty diaper and I always say that to my friends with young kids. I tell them one of the happiest days of their lives is when their kid learns to go into the bathroom by themselves, take a shit by themselves, and wipe their ass by themselves. Great feeling!!

At the doctor getting cleared to resume normal activity on my broken wrist. Super stoked to be out of the brace. I have a feeling getting back to full range of motion is going to be a painful process but I'm happy to be getting it started.

My physical therapist said "let the pain be your guide". In other words, push yourself to regain the range of motion you had before, but don't overdo it too quickly and risk further damage; pull back when it's too painful. Hope this helps friend. Wishing health for you.

Secret news flash nobody tells you... All of that "shit" is a piece of cake compared to raising tweens and teens. I did diapers for almost four years straight. Nothing to it comparatively. Plus side - I can easily change my own in a few years. |

I did my last two bike workouts with no brace it was quickly obvious that's it's going to be another couple weeks until I can ride outside. Probably going to be a few months before I can do a push up. It's ok, I don't really like cold weather riding that much anyway.

The plus side of being sick, eating sparsely, and not drinking for the past 10 days is that my fat jeans are falling off me. That's nice. I'm going to keep this up.

Nailed the job interview. Age group is 6 weeks to 5 years so I have to decide if I want to be changing diapers and doing potty training full time or wait for my co-worker to have her baby and take her place for the rest of the year. No summers off either. I am really holding out for the option 3 office job but I don't know how long that will take... Come back with a counter offer. You'll take the gig if they raise your salary 23.7%, cut the deductible of your health plan by 50%, provide you a car and driver (who doubles as an armed body guard) to take you anywhere you want to go in the EU, and most importantly, no potty training and diaper changes - kids need to change their own diapers or have their parents make other arrangements. The car and driver/bodyguard ask is probably your bargaining chip that you're willing to give up if you get all your other demands. When I was in Peru I know a gringo who had a teaching gig for a school exclusively for the children of employees of a foreign mining company that hired US and Canadian engineers. In addition to the good pay they gave him an apartment in one of the better barrios in the city and a driver/former Peruvian Special Forces armed bodyguard whose job was to drive him to/from work, the grocery store, weekend surf trips to the coast, anywhere he wanted to go. Told me they did it to lessen the odds that they'd ever have to deal with a kidnapping/ransom situation, but it was complete overkill and he mostly told the guy he wasn't needed except for the surf trips - more for the convenience than fear of kidnap by terrorist surfers. |

I found some guitar books sitting on the shelf in a classroom (with hundreds of books) and asked the teacher if I could borrow a Pat Metheny and Rolling Stones book of guitar music. He gave me the name of the music store in town. Lame bro. You're not even using them. Obviously you'll return them so go back during a quiet time and borrow those books if you don't think they're being used and instead are just taking up shelf space. No one is going to notice their absence. I really hate the idea of small things of little to no monetary value that other people find practical value in just sitting in a box or storage unit when someone else can make use of it. It's a book of guitar music in a school so it's meant to be used for learning purposes, not a signed first edition of Dante's The Divine Comedy or a diamond tiara. |

It's definitely 💯% correct to think it... even write it.
Just can't say it where they can hear you.
Simple.

Well,
this weekend was supposed to be a kind of honeymoon for me and my wife. We got married in August and she's pregnant now so rather than use the $$ we got for our wedding on an actual honeymoon we used it to help pay for our house. We closed today! Move in sometime in the next 30 days.
Since we didn't have anything on the books, I got her and I an air bnb in Kalamazoo this weekend so we could see our favorite band, Steppin' in it, at Bells. I also invited her friends and got her a spa day on Saturday.
Fast forward to today, looks like a major winter storm is forecast to bring 6-12 inches of snow to both Lansing and Kalamazoo. The worst of it hits during rush hour tomorrow, when we would be on I-94 headed west.
Rather than getting ourselves killed on the highway in lake effect snow, we are staying home. I was able to get the concert tickets refunded (couldn;t believe how easy that was! Thanks etix). And the spa day can be rescheduled. Air BNB has fucked policies about cancellations and they are trying to screw me out of a lot of cash but still working on that end.
Anyways we had big plans and it was gonna be a great weekend, but it's all canceled now. Sucks.
