Well. This is night three of Christine being in D.C. I am happy to say that this is the last night. It has been challenging with her gone. You really don’t appreciate something until you don’t have it anymore. Meghan came out and helped out on evening with my parent. That was greatly appreciated. Work has been hard because it just so happens that I have a huge deadline later this week. Great timing huh? The nights with the kids and the morning have relatively easy but exhausting. The trick of single parenting is as follows.

When I was a lead at Disneyland Doug taught we one very important lesson in my youth. In order to be lazy you must work really hard. Now I know it sound contradictory but here me out. You must unplug your section, make sure your bones and carts are ready and have all flashlights working. Have your rotations planned out and your lighted signs and gel coats ready to go. Now you are ready to hang out all evening and not work. See! Be lazy. In other words. 1 hour of prework and prep facilitates no work later. Instead of playing catchup why not smoke and relax. So to apply this to parenting. Get dinner and afterbath set. Make sure you have your diapers and bottles prepped and ready. have reading material and stuffed animals in hand and make sure pacifiers are cleaned. do laundry even if you dont need it yet. And for God’s sake clean up after you leave each area. This facilitates less work and more quality time with you child. Or in my case children. Alos less clean up means more t.v. time. And while Christine is away more porn time. Yeah! Porn! Just kidding. Not really though.

It has been kind of lonely here. Alot of penis in this house. We definitely need some female here. we received Aiden and Chases birthday invitations so those will go out soon. I had my Birthday over the weekend and it was pretty mellow. And by mellow I mean uneventful. Christine made procured reservations at The London of West Hollywood for Saturday so I will surely post about eating at a Gordon Ramsey restaurant next weekend. The last couple of months have been pretty hard on me. I will probably right a nother post about that in finer detail. Anywhoo. That is all for now.

Don’t answer that. Its rhetorical.  This morning I awoke to the saddened feeling that both my kids double strollers where stolen from my front porch.  Did I think by leaving them out there this would not happen.  Probably.  I tend to think that because I love in a good neighborhood these kind of things usually shouldn’t happen.  I rarely lock things up and I usually leave things lying around.  I guess it takes an incident like this to become paranoid.  Or at least putting things away behind lock and key.  Makes me sad.  To share in my misery some of the neighbors got there things stolen as well.  Bikes, Balls, and even a banquet table.  I guess it makes me feel better that other people Thought like me and got just as screwed.  Oh well.  Off to Craigslist I will go to replace my stuff.  What a shitty feeling.
