Domestic Dude

I'm not really a stay-at-home Dad, even though I play one on TV.

We have cats instead of kids, for one thing. And I do have a semi-regular job, but one that allows me to work from home most days.  But today really felt like a domestic Daddy day.  Check it out:

• Got up around 6-ish to finish up some work before seeing a client at their office today.
• Fed the cats.  Shut up.
• Cleaned out the fridge as the leftovers in there were beginning to mutate into intelligent beings.
• Took the garbage, including the mutated leftovers, out to the curb on my way to see my client.
• Spent three hours or so in the office.  Sheesh...how do you people do it?
• Dropped off some of Gia's prescriptions at the pharmacist.
• Did a small grocery shopping.  Needed some half & half.
  
• Picked up the filled prescriptions from the pharmacist.
• Did another 3-4 hours of work at home.
• Dyed Gia's roots for her.  I did it once about a year ago and she loved how it came out so I've been doing it ever since.  Once again...shut up!
• Cooked dinner for the two of us.  OK, it was basically heating up sauce and meatballs purchased from the Italian Pork Store around the corner, but I did cook the pasta.  Shut up!
• Did a load of laundry and folded another two loads.
• Collapsed on the couch to spit out this here nonsense on this here blog.

I'd be a good stay-at-home Dad.

If I could stomach kids, that is.

This Dude Abides

Gotta a little gift from a friend of mine the other day, and I thought I would show it off.

That's right.  A little Dude for the Verdant Dude!  So what if I'm rocking the gray hair instead of The Dude's brown locks.  Same vibe.

Let's zoom out to see the T-shirt, shall we?

And that's about as much of me as you are going to see here.  Cheers!

The Dude abides...

I wrote a silly post yesterday about hitting rock bottom because I went out to pick up Chinese food in my pajamas. I was feeling a little down about that, but I got turned around on the whole situation by one little comment from Cap'n Marrrrk of no touch monkey! fame.

He stated "That never bothered The Dude."

I might have to get a t-shirt made up with that slogan.

Thanks for making me see the error of my ways, Cap'n! Sweeping in like The Stranger, to make 'er all right a'gin. Much obliged.

I'm heading out tomorrow morning to buy a quart of half & half with a post-dated check.
