Nic and Dadda

Today started off with traffic court. No, I didn’t speed - I’ve never received a speeding ticket as a matter of fact - I simply did not get my state inspection done in a timely manner and it cost me $61. D’oh. This traffic court deal meant that I missed seeing my son off to his first day of preschool for this year. He went last year, too, so it’s not like I missed the first first day, just the first day of THIS year. So that kinda put me in a bad mood from the get go.

Then I got to work and had to read a 43-page annual report front to back. It was actually pretty informative, but it was about as interesting as you can imagine an annual report could be, but I put my editor hat on and went to work.

I ran over to my son’s school at lunch to at least see him get out on his first day and he was really happy to see me, shouting “Daddy!” That certainly made me smile and the 10-minutes I spent with him in the middle of the day got me through the rest of the afternoon.

I could go on, but at least I ended the day with two of my favorite people - my son and my awesome girlfriend. Thanks for brightening my day - I love you guys!
