6:00 Alarm goes off. Do the unthinkable. Hit snooze 3 more times.
6:30 Rush around downstairs, pack lunch. Receive text from Del, and I quote "Tims Westhills". NICE!
6:60 Start truck. Scrape windows, face nearly freezes right off. The wind bites and the air burns. And not a warm burn either, but a freezing, nasty burn.
7:32 Arrive at Tims. Andy and Kevin already there. Adam pulled in ahead of me. His 1972 Gremlin looks pretty good in this light.
7:35 Breakfast. Sausage breakfast sandwich and an apple juice. Thank you Mr. Horton.
7:45 Kevin regales us with tales of the Dominican Republic, most of them started with "I was so smashed, but not as smashed as everyone else though...". (Do I need a period after that?). Talk about this and that. Realize that Derek isn't here. Andy calls him, he is at the site. Whoops. Jake was supposed to call him, but apparently Jake had more important things to do.
9:45 Conclude that it looks warmer outside now, so we should head to the site.
10:00 We were wrong. -28 with the windchill. I of course said that it was no problem, and that we should work, because we are men, and we are tough. Response: Guitar Hero! Guitar Hero! Guitar Hero! Guitar Hero! chanted over and over. So we headed to Del's for a rock off.
11:00 Arrive at Del's. ROCK!
12:00 Eat some of my lunch. Grapes, carrots, and a PB and N sandwich.
12:01-4:30 ROCK!
4:30 Call Wife. Tell her I am on my way home, and ask if she could have a nice warm meal ready for me, because I was so exhausted from working all day out in the cold.
5:15 Arrive home. Nice warm meal cooking.
5:30 Eat supper. Baked teriyaki chicken and rice and broccoli. Thanks Snookum Pie.
6:30 Take wife out for a surprise. Drive to YMCA, get gym membership. Nothing says I love you like "hey baby, here's a gym membership".
7:45 Arrive home. Feel in better shape because I now have a gym membership.
7:55 Feed son snack.
8:10 Give son bath.
8:25 Put son to bed.
8:35 Do some dishes.
8:59 Watch some A.D. Only a few episodes though, because I am not in any rush anymore, DEL! (Tears, sobs). Now that your NBF Andy has loaned them to you!
10:00 Surf.
10:48 Write this line.
11:00 Go to bed. That's right, I am not showering because I did not work today. Although, I did break a sweat rocking my face off.
11:30 Shower. Wife says I better, or else find somewhere else to sleep.
11:45 Bed.
Auf Wiedersehen!
P.S. Thanks to all of you who are writing comments. NOT! Only Mysterious Russell, Nacho, and Neil G deserve recognition here.

This is the weirdest thing I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteWow. Brianne's quite the wife. First you "ask" her to make you dinner. Then you get her a "gym membership". She's a better wife than I. Hey, have you ever "asked" her to bake you a pie "woman"?
