What happened to all that rest I thought I would accumulate over the holidays? Monday morning woke me with a swift kick to the gonads. I had my weekly appointment which I got up for with plenty of time, but then I fell asleep since I wasn't waking up Chubs like I usually do, which made me almost late. I was really hoping that I would be another centimeter closed or maybe even more, but instead, the measurements didn't show much of an improvement. I was told that changing to the new collagen would have a delay then it would take off and close the wound pretty fast. I also had it in my head just as a personal goal to be done with all this crap by the end of the year. Nope, good old doctor tells me I'll need to lose 50-70 pounds to help the wound to heal, which you know is easy to do. I just decided to go to bed, which Wife was still there, but I didn't want to bother her much. She then woke at 1:00pm and started her passive aggressively making noise in the bedroom to wake me, not that my alarm wouldn't wake me at 2:30pm and/or 3:00pm. When Mama gots to go, Mama gots to go. I eventually woke up, feeling pretty shitty at 2:30pm, washed my face, and went out with Wife and Chubs to have our regular "last meal" before she hot foots it out of town. I want my woman back in town, I hate being Mr. Mom. She is so much better at it. She asked me what the boys ate for dinner, and I honestly answered "I hadn't even thought about it, but there ain't shit in the fridge." Dammit, gotta go get some groceries tomorrow.
We ate at Zaxby's, which I still can't get enough of, but I did go with their cobb salad, at 800 calories, and washed it down with a zero calorie orange PowerAde. I like how the skinny jerk-offs like to say "the only people that drink diet sodas are fat people." No shit, Sherlock, why would a skinny person drink it, they're not as good as the real thing?
Just to make it a little more fun, Chubs finally remembered he had a huge Math homework compilation thing to do with like 37 problems covering the whole semester. Wife is gone, I have an hour to poop, shower, and get to work, see where I fit in this homework. My lunch hour at 10:30pm was then reviewing and trying to figure out what half these problems were looking for in their answers. I told Chubs to just do about twenty, but once I get going, I can't stop. We went through and did all the problems, it got better as we went along. We ordered pizza sunday night, and there were a few slices left, which the boys ate, so nobody starved.
The only good thing I can say about my first day back to work is that nobody was here during the day, so nothing got done. Chemistry had the tool off and I haven't gone through and turned it on from a cold start, so I wasn't going to try, and the imaging tool looked like it was down for a source change, which is done by the people who sold us the tool, so I get to kind of take it easy, workwise.
