Going out tonight? Celebrating? (Or, if you're reading this after the fact, did you?)
Not me! I'll be lucky if I can get some sleep.
My wife would want to go anywhere even if we had someone to take care of our kids.
This is married-dad life, guys. I'll be lucky to get a kiss.
My goals for the New Year?
-Keeping my wife from killing herself, at least in front of my kids.
-Trying to save enough money for the future.
-Trying to keep my kids from killing themselves, each other, or their mother.
-Keeping my vehicle, which is over two decades old and doesn't have working a/c, running.
-Keeping social workers and health departments out of my home.
None of these things would be problems if I hadn't married.
I hope you have a great New Year. And if you're not married, DON'T GET MARRIED!!!
A look at the world from a sometimes sarcastic, tongue-in-cheek, decidedly American male perspective. Lately, this blog has been mostly about gender issues, dating, marriage, divorce, sex, and parenting via analyzing talk radio, advice columns, news stories, religion, and pop culture in general. I often challenge common platitudes, arguments. and subcultural elements perpetuated by fellow Evangelicals, social conservatives. Read at your own risk.
