Today was about as unproductive a day as you can get. I arrived at work 2 minutes late to find that the only thing I needed to repair before the morning meeting was a commercial blender that was not broken at all. Easy fix right?
As my back was still giving me quite a bit of grief, I decided to do some do a physical inspection of the grounds outside. This lasted about 20 minutes before I was in so much pain, I could barely walk. After yet another fun and exciting manager's meeting, I had already decided I was going to leave work for the day. This decision was further confirmed as I walked to my office resembling someone desperately looking for a bathroom after having one too many Jamie Lee Curtis yogurts.
I arrived home and I think the boys thought I was turning into a smaller, less muscular, less green version of the Incredible Hulk. They are good boys, so they left me alone as I went to bed. 3 hours, 3 Tylenol, and several episodes of Breaking Bad later, I felt like a new man. Thank God nobody was there to see the physical positions I came up with to stretch my back. Honestly, I surprised myself.
Tomorrow is the last day that I will see my eldest son for a couple weeks, so we are hoping to hang out on the river after work. No tubing, skiing, or wake boarding, just spending some time together, sharing some laughs and an occasional leap off of the side of the boat. Here's hoping that the weather cooperates.
On another note, I am seriously considering shaving my beard clean off. My hesitation stems from the fact that it has been so long, and I am a bit concerned about what might be under there. For those of you who have not seen me for a bit, do not misunderstand. I do not look as though I should be manufacturing duck calls on the history channel, or singing "cheap sunglasses". I keep it trimmed, just long enough to drive my wife insane! I just think it might be time for a different look.
