Ugh. Even the sight of an adorable, random pup on the street at the end of my workday can’t help me shake my aggro attitude. Like, it would be great if there was a business where you could go, pay 10 bucks, and just wallop someone in the face for 20 minutes or so. I think it’s a viable business offering. I would totes go all of the time. Maybe I need to join a fight club? I guess I’m a skosh overwhelmed. On top of my regular day job (as a professional e-mail writer) and my regular night job (as dad to the boy), I have been chasing down countless people and documents to help get my mother’s life back in order. I realize that a week at my parents’ house wasn’t really enough to get everything done. While the majority of peeps I’ve dealt with have been very kind and helpful, there is the occasional dimwit who has frustrated me. I am not an attorney or an accountant or a financial advisor or a doctor, but I know what I know, and sometimes it seems like I know more than the so-called professionals. I feel like nothing I do will ever be good enough for anyone. I’m failing as a son and as a dad and as a husband and as an employee. True story. If I’ve learned anything over the past week, it’s to BE PREPARED. You never know what shizz you will encounter in your life. And, frankly, I don’t want my son or my hypothetical daughter to have to pick up the pieces of a life led in chaos. Seriously, anypony know of a fight club in the Tri-State area that I can join?
