long weekend
Friday, August 29, 2008
So, last weekend of the summer. And thinking on where it went, I immediately go to 'when did it start?'. The entire northern hemisphere has had a pretty much bullshit summer, at least as far as temperature goes, and this weekend looks to be no different.
I start a new job on Tuesday, so for the first time in a long time, this labour day weekend is actually a long weekend for me since I have said goodbye to shift work. I am looking forward to my family having a more normal lifestyle, and at least my daughter knowing when I'll be in and out for a change. But now that its pending, I find myself thinking less about the new job and the rigamorole that it will entail, and more about what a change it is going to be being home in the evenings and weekends all the time, and whether I will be raining on Superwife's parade as much as I think I will be.
And did you catch that I used the word rigamarole just now?
