That Episode of Spongebob

Did you see the one where Spongebob and Patrick found a baby clam and adopted it? Spongebob became a stay-at-home-sponge and slaved over dirty diapers, feedings, laundry, etc. Patrick was the breadwinner and trudged off to work every day, only to return haggard and worn and promised Spongebob that the NEXT night would be his night off. Every night, Patrick returned home more and more tired, and every night he promised Spongebob that the NEXT night he would give Spongebob the night off.

It all came to an end the night that Patrick stayed out all night. Spongebob went to find him at work, and what greeted him? Patrick was under his rock, in his work gear, eating donuts and watching tv.

That's kind of how my work is. Except, my real work starts when I get home, the easy part IS being AT WORK. I have worked harder in the hour and a half that I have been home than the entire day at work. I even had a Manager's Meeting (in which I must suffer a few of the most tedious personalities ON THE PLANET).

The Lil Mommas have been good tonight, they really have. They have been patient and easy, we even rolled around in the floor and played. Until now... the Little Lil Momma is crying over a banana peel. And the Big Lil Momma is rolling around in her underwear and asking asinine questions about American Idol.

Thankfully, at the end of it all there is an Ambien waiting for me in a sweet little green bottle. I love bedtime.
