Don’t tell Becky but I woke up this morning at 9 her time. Then I rolled over and slept thirty minutes more. Then I leisurely took a shower and got ready for the day. It’s now 10:30 her time and I’m heading out to buy a burrito. Then I’ll likely find a smoothy place or Starbucks where I can grab free WiFi. I’ll sit in a leather chair and read, send a couple hundred e-mails, and read some more. Then I’ll saunter over to play a quick soundcheck and then a concert for a couple hundred people who will laugh at my jokes and sing along to my songs and then tell me what a wonderful human being I am afterwards.
If they only knew.
This is not real life. But it is my life half of the year. In the other half of my life I’m just dad, I don’t get to do everything I want when I want the way I want and no one asks for my autograph. Strangely, I miss it anyway. You can tell my wife that part but please leave out the part about me sleeping in. Thanks.
well I’m not to happy about that either as sit in my 6’x 9’ cubicle reading your blog on my laptop.. LOL..
But even though our jobs are quite different.. its the same when I get home. People are done telling how well I am adjusting my new job.. and patting me on my back. I get home..change poopy diapers.. wipe messy faces and then start enjoying the best part of my day..being home.
This was an endearing blog entry to read. And I won’t tell your wife.
are you serious? 200 emails?!
i hope you’re enjoying Gainesville! lemme know if you need any suggestions for good places to eat.
