Jumping virtual rope
Woof woof psyche!
We have a smart dog and a dumb dog. This morning the smart dog acted like she needed to go outside. When I arose to take her on a walk, she stole my spot in the bed.
The Amazing Dark Ages
History will record these years as a remarkable time for technology and simultaneously record it as a freaking technological dark ages. Why the hell does nothing work?!
If you are going to fail, fail big.
Some of my failings are incomprehensibly unforgivable. The failings must be addressed. Forgiveness is not required for moving forward.
Hard week ahead
Nothing beats the thrill of waking in a total panic attack.
Hello!
Communication Breakdown
I scheduled a technician from Comcast to come to the house this morning.
I received an automated call from Comcast yesterday reminding me of the appointment and noting, "Our technician will call before coming to your house and will not come out if no one answers."
Last night I realized I had a conflict so I called Comcast and rescheduled for next week.
This morning my son who is supposed to be taking one of his final exams sends me a text message telling me that his mother wants me to call Comcast.
I can only assume there is a Comcast truck outside our house having not called in advance. The house where my wife is and I am not.
I tried calling my wife to get an explanation but she does not answer the phone.
I am not calling anyone because this is clearly not my {radio edit} problem.
Update:
- Post edited to remove unnecessary foul language.
- Very impressed at how quickly Comcast found this post and offered to help!
- Turns out my wife did not know I had already rescheduled the appointment and since I was driving sent a text message to my son to "remind dad to call comcast"
- Teen son did not notice said text message until he was in school and sent a message to me that read "Mom says to call Comcast."
Funny enough…communication breakdown still applies.
Paying for my indiscretions
Last night was so critically important to me. And it went so awry. I’ll be paying for last night all day today.

Nothing makes you feel shittier
Nothing makes me feel worse than losing my temper with my family. Well, except maybe the flippant remarks made by me during the bout of anger. No one deserves to be yelled at. It solves nothing and tears are painful. Afterall, it’s only fucking grades. And am I really mad at the child? Or at my own parental shortcomings? Something tells me it is the latter so perhaps I really should be yelling at myself. Oh, internally I’m already there.
Get off my damn lawn
How do you know that you are getting too old for this shit? Easy! When the grading rubric for your son’s high school class includes references to objects and methods of a language that you’ve been thinking you need to learn to further your career to pay for his college, then his buddy of one year younger mentions learning a language in only two hours that made it easier, you might as well Peter Principle your ass into a Hoveround and Walmart greet your way into a retirement home.
Search for sanity
In my ongoing pursuit of happinesssanity, I have decided that each day, a small amount of time must be committed to organizing and throwing away…no skipping! That is all.
Parenting Means
Being a parent means on Saturday morning, before you are dressed, your wallet is already $60 lighter.
