So yes, there has been a complete slow down in posting, and, more unfortunate for some, a complete stop to the quote of the day. I assure you, this is not due to lack of interest, lack of good quotes, or anything to do with me quitting. None of these things could be further from the truth. In fact, it's due to a schedule that has had me completely inundated with professional and personal work, non-stop, for the last few weeks. Furthermore, last Tuesday I had to take my laptop in for repairs and I've still not gotten it back, making the handling of my personal blog nearly impossible. Rather than talk about the various events, I'm gonna give a rundown on what my life has been like over the past few weeks, and what it looks like going forward. Next time you're ready to tell someone that you "don't have enough time for that," or you're "too tired," think back to this.....it can be done.
It all started Friday, the 15th. Wake up at 8 am to drive 3 hours to a lake house with the Pops. I'm there all day Friday, wake up Saturday at 6 am and drive 3 hours back to go to Rock the Bells at Shoreline. Rock the Bells is an all day affair. Sunday I do an open house. On Monday the 18th, I work from 8 to 5 and then go from 7:30 to 9:30 at a meeting for the parents of freshmen athletes where I coach. Tuesday the work schedule is the same, and I follow it up with ultimate frisbee at 6 and drop off my busted computer at 8:45.
Wednesday, first day of XC practice, I work from 8 to 3, coach from 3 to 6 and then drive up for the Giants game. When the Giants game ends around 10, I head out to the 7 Mile to join Coach and E for some drinks. I get home around 1:30am. Next day, I do the work thing and coaching thing the same as Wednesday, but after practice I drive back to work and show clients properties from 6:30 to 9. Now it's Friday and I work, coach and then drive immediately to Outside Lands to see Radiohead.
On Saturday, it's off to work from 8 to 9, then up to a consultation at 10 am in the city. Yes, I'm getting some more ink, and yes, I'm extremely amped about it. I hit a quick breakfast with Za and McButter before meeting Topher over at the stadium for the Giants game. At the end of the game, I drive home, nap for three hours and then get ready and head back into the city for the dual birthday nights of Bri and DPro. I spend the first half of my night (about 10ish to just before 12) with Pro, and the rest of the night with Bri. I eat crepes at 3 am before walking back to my car and driving home.
Sunday, I do an Open House before heading up to Margaret's bday party. Monday, I'm at work and cross country again before heading up, once more, to the Giants game. Tonight, I pull the same as last Tuesday (with the championship game for my ultimate team), tomorrow it's the same with client property showings starting at 6:30, Thursday it's work, running and a club trip before hitting up Colibri for hostess Sarah's going away party. Friday, after work, it's off to the lake.
Any chance we can change the world to a 26 hour day? I could use a few more...
