what is uncomfortable? I'm mad, but mad at something else. Ya see, before kids, I was the guy who put in long hours in the office. I was the guy before kids who held a job, started a business, freelanced and went to school all at once over a 1.5 year period. Now? It's busting my ass to keep up at work amid the chaos at home.

Every single time I try to make forward moves, I have to hunker down and do family stuff and by family stuff, I mean, moving twice in a year because of my wife's new job, nursing my injured wife back from all of the surgeries shes been through.

at the end of the day, I'm like...what the fuck is there to give?

I'm not saying this to you, I'm saying this to myself.
