Kid Germs

Ah gawd. These kid germs are literally killing me.

I can barely move around the house, let alone keep up with a two-year-old and one-year-old that like to scream all the time.

Maybe it’s not a bad thing. I go 100mph all the time and this is getting me to slowdown. I can’t remember the last time i had a slow Sunday morning, but today I sure as hell felt the time drag.

Let the movie marathon continue!

Reorg

I started using the mobile app pocket in 2014 after one of my mentors suggested toying around with it. For the next 2-3 years, several phones and devices later, I stopped using it.

While lounging around the house, half asleep and with 2 hours of silence, I asked myself “What did I do when I had time?” I opened up pocket. I have all these bookmarks I saved. A large part of those bookmarks are broken links. Maybe a lesson for the future, but it’s surprising to me that parts and pieces of my mind have also disappeared post parenthood. I might need to find a solution for that.

Maybe self-hosted will be able to help me.

Sauna Cabana: A Day Off

The last day I took off was for a root canal last year. That was fun.

I’ve worked for 10 years now in the business and I don’t ever recall an employer ever encouraging me to take time off. They never will encourage you to take the time if they feel it’s a detriment to the business but as a human, as a creative, as a parent. We all need a day.

Funny as that is… I have to do my taxes and what better day to do it than on my day off with no kids screaming. Can you believe that? Filing taxes is getting me excited. Talk about a dad moment.
