Suddenly Monday

So there it was... gone!
The weekend has came and went with the blink of an eye; And so did today!

I started my morning with back-to-back appointments until 1pm. Before I knew it it was time to go home.
If only every day could be like that!

I come home ruined after work to find the flat in a mess with the kids refusing to tidy up. It's odd how kids can tell when you've had enough, so decide to give you more.

They're in bed now, i've got a beer in hand and a comic book movie on the TV. Things are looking up!

Joys of parenting...

So yet again my kids are inflicted with a bout of sickness. Friday evening, laying in bed vomming all over the place is not a memory I want them to keep.

The moment we heard them gagging me and the wife we up and running to their aid. As you do, instinct just takes over.

Then begins the stripping of cloths and beds, making sure every inch of the floor gets scrubbed, and the constant badgering of "do you need a bowl" for a couple of hours.

Me being the downright awesome husband I am, sent the wife to bed.
She now works weekends at the local theme park so needed the sleep more than me (I assure you, after only getting 3 hours sleep myself I now have a different opinion).

So today is a day of rest for my boys, and me. with the constant worry that their dinner is about to grace us with it's presence.

The joys of parenting... wouldn't want to change it for all the usb devices in japan!

How much is too much

I've come to terms with my inevitable old age. It was a rough journey getting there, but acceptance has been reached.
I am too old to be going out til all hours, a fact that gets reinforced each time I attempt to do so!

Had a gala dinner with work last night, all suited and booted in black tie and looking great!
Around 2am the notion that clubbing would be a "good idea" gets thrown about the room. Next thing you know there is a mass exodus over to a club. I on the other hand decide to go to bed! and I feel worse off for it!

Why does no-one warn you when you're in your 20's, I would of partied harder if I'd known then what I know now!

Not a good call to take!

So work has me holed up in a hotel in Brighton, about 80km from where I actually live.
All is going swimmingly, have cleared 16 machines through the morning and have no work left for the afternoon... Good times!

Then I get a call from the wife. One of my kids has swallowed a penny and is off to A&E.
It's a horrible realisation, that iff anything worse had happened I'm too far away to do anything!

I mean, If i was there I'd just wait a day or two for it to come out ;) but the dread still fills your chest!

How to lose a portion of your day...

So here I am, chained to a desk and rebuilding laptop images. You may think that's a dream day for me as I'm such a nerd? Wrong!

Holy awesome teeshirts Batman!

So I check in every day, to see what's on offer. Drool over all the photos listed there with the repetitive noise of  want it, want it, want it going through my head.

Draw Something... Anything!

So Zynga have bought the company that made DrawSomething. a risk for any company that could essentially be a one trick pony...
