Bummer

Wanna know what sucks?

I'll tell you what sucks.

Nothing's going on.

That's right, nothing's going on right now. I've grown so accustomed to having a big event on the horizon, that now that that particular horizon is behind us there is nothing in the near future to focus on in an, I-Can't-Wait-For-That-Thing-To-Happen kinda way.

The San Diego trip was such a huge deal but now that it's past? Eh... nuttin.

I mean we have Labor Day coming in a few weeks. That's a big deal. The kids are about to start school, grades five and three, and that's a huge deal. We still have a week and a half left of August, and we're going to a Lowell Spinners game on the next kid weekend. Those are positives.

But at the same time, there is no huge mega event in the near future. I guess the closest we have is the holidays. Jen is going on a business trip soon and that is going to suck. Unlike the last business trip she went on, I won't be able to hitchhike along. We are going to be apart, and that is the lowest form of low.

This coming weekend there is nothing happening at all. Nothing planned, nothing hinted at, just empty free time at home.

Wait a second... that's a good thing. We've been running around so crazy that a couple of slow days in the house really sound great!

WOOHOO!! Bring on 5:30, the weekend is almost here!
