Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

Down Time

I went back to work again yesterday. I did the night shift. It felt good to get back to doing something. Due to a weird circumstance, I had three days off in a row. Three! And what did I do? Not much. I had two lunches with friends. They were definitely the highlights of my three-day-cation. What did I do with the rest of the time? Mostly, I just sat here:

Gus is under the green blanket.

Gus is under the green blanket.

All those stacks of things is how I organize stuff. The more important things are all in one stack, and the things I don’t need to address as quickly are in another stack. Unfortunately, all my stacks were neglected during my time off. Hopefully I’ll get things going now that I’m working again and time off has become more precious to me.

    That sounds lovely. Sitting in a comfy spot with a cat? Lovely.

      What the heck are you doing up at 4:49am?

        I’ve been falling asleep earlier and earlier. Last night was around 8:30, so I was pretty much awake at 4. I went back to sleep on the couch, though. Gotta respect Saturdays, y’know.

    And where was Mr. Gus during your three-day sitting marathon? I’m going with “snuggling in that green blanket right by my side”. Therefore, you cannot truly say you did nothing – you provided stability and support to the snoozing, nuzzling kitty. Priceless.

      Exactly! Now is the most formative time of your little ones life. You may count these days as wasted…..but to Gus, they’re the best days ever!

      (And I like sitting around….I’m doing it right now)
