Year End Diary!

12-23-12

I am woke up by the wife at 7am saying bots is already up and she has to head into work for a 7-5 shift. So I get up and check email and online shit. I haven’t done that for two days! I update blog and record some podcasts to archive for Idiothead.com Morning Show. I basically hang out all day waiting for the wife to get home and when she does, I get to work on some of the new sketch cards I gotta do. They turn out quite nice. I watch Mickeys Christmas Carol, A Christmas Carol with Patrick Stewart. Wife finally puts the kids to bed and I stay up till 12:30 getting work done. I finally pass out after that.

12-24-12

I wake up at 7:30 to all the lights on in the house. I get up and get the baby up too. We hang out all day and bots is being moody and weird. Finally around 2pm, I put a big 20 pound turkey in the oven. Couple hours later I prepare taters and dumplings and rolls. The wife finally comes home a little later than expected but food gets done right around then as well. We eat our Christmas dinner and then lay and watch some cartoons on Hub. Bots is being moody and she’s got new presents to wrap for him, so I take him upstairs to watch cartoons with him and calm him down for the night. Finally she comes upstairs and puts him to bed. I play with the baby. He does a final feeding and passes out. I give the wife a backrub and turn over, instantly falling asleep to Family Guy around 11pm.

Merry Christmas! I wake up at 3:45am. I cannot sleep. I have thoughts in my head that I should go downstairs and write a letter to dad. So I get up and go write it and update the blog., while everyone else sleeps. The wife gets up as I finish and sees that I am done and we head back to bed together around 5am. At 7:30am, I wake up to bots staring at me and wanting to start opening presents. So we all head downstairs and open his gifts. The wife opens hers as well. Bots plays with them as I warm up some leftovers and check online shit. I watch the extras on my 1950’s War of the Worlds DVD. Finally around 11am, I am still tired, so I take a two hour nap.

I get up around 1:30pm and the wife heads to sleep because she’s gotta work the overnight. I list a bunch of old erotica art on ebay and sort things in my office. I warm up some more leftovers and just hang with the kids all day watching old TREK TOS episodes on my Itunes. The wife gets up and puts bots to bed upstairs. I get Jimmy to fall asleep downstairs while watching the new Toy Hunter and Doctor Who episodes. The wife takes off for work and I start searching ebay and wiki for Toy news and other things. I head upstairs and fall asleep to Firefly on Netflix.

I wake up at 7:20, and see that the wife is home and probably sleeping in bots’ bed with him. I head downstairs and search ebay for toys some more. I do more research on the things I want to start collecting again. She gets up and tells me to run to the bank. I get dressed and head to the bank. I get breakfast and head back. The baby is up and so I do a feeding. He passes out and Scott gets up. I do a morning show and then take down the Xmas tree and decorations. I clean the house a bit and wait around till the wife gets back up. I then curl up on the couch for a much needed nap.

After a couple hours, I get dressed and head out to work. On the way I notice the car is acting all sluggish. When I get there, I discover I got a major flat tire! Kats hubby Chris is there and changes it for me. I feel so useless and now even more broke than I was. UGHHHH. I work the shift and its uneventful. I get home by 2:30 on the spare tire and pass out by 3am.

12-26-12

I am woke up at 7:40 by the wife saying she’s heading to Belle Tire to get the tire replaced. An hour later, they say they cannot change the one but all four desperately need it. GREAT! So another hour later, its all done and they change a tire sensor and the windshield wipers too. I do a morning show and update blog and download new music to listen to. I head to work and do a shift there. Then go home and pass out.

12-27-12 --12-28-12 I cannot remember what I did on these days. Probably a bunch of nothing. Plus worked the day job both nights.

12-29-12

I spend most of the day drawing smut to sell on ebay. The wife take a 4 hour nap and I am on teething moody baby duty. Then finally the kids are in bed and the wife and I drink a lot and spend the night together. It was AWESOME! Us time. YAY! I [ass out around 2am.

12-30-12

I get up at 7 with the kids and watch Lincoln. Bots is not feeling good at all, so I hug him a lot. Later I am cutting James’ nails and he moves his finger at one point and I cut too deep. He bleeds a lot and I feel real bad about it. I watch This is 40, and am not impressed. I do some sketching for more smut to sell on ebay. Bots passes out on the couch way early, so I carry him to bed. I stay up with James and watch the Redskins beat the Cowboys for a playoff spot. I then go on the BFB show after the wife gets home and we talk into the night. I pass out around 2:30am.

12-31-12

Wife works 3-10. All people we had potential plans with backed out. So wife and I drank and watched the ball drop. On to a new year!

1-1-13

I wake up at 7:50 to bots and baby being up. Wife works 8-4pm. I do some more sketch cards and other sketching, plus cleaning up office and taking out trash. Wife gets home and I take in cans and get some fruit at Kroger. I head to work for a 7-2am shift, and come home, passing out at 3am dead tired.

1-2-13

I am woke up at 7:30am by the baby crying and bots’ light on. The wife sleeps, not feeling well. I do a feeding and catch another 45 minutes of sleep on the floor next to the baby. I get up and record a morning show, cook good food and then do more sketch cards while catching up with podcasts. I attempt a nap which of course was even foolish to think I could try. The wife gets home and I head to work at 7. Work till 2am and then back home by 2:30. I literally fall asleep on the way home but catch myself before I crash our Jeep. I fall asleep scared to death.

1-3-13

I wake up at 7:20 and deal with a sick bots and moody baby. I get no nap and no break at all during the day. The wife comes home from work and takes a 3 hour nap herself. Then I head to work at 7 and go till 4am. Its uneventful. I get home and pass out quickly.
