Recover and Recoup

Back from the holiday.
Girls sunburnt.
Wife exhausted.
Me, fatter, not wiser.

Marathon days at the beach.
Lotsa ice cream et.
Father-in-law treats for dinner and more.
Let’s stop at Chipotle on the way home!

Finished The Black Hole.
Half through As You Like It.
Did Kant in 90 minutes.
Head scratching over C. P. R.

Sleep deprived.
Unshaven.
Outta breath.
Too much to do here, now.

Too much work
That which doesn’t pay.
Keeps piling up.
Woe is I!

Online job postings and more.
Balance the check book and pay bills.
More school events this week than available hours.
Too stressed to even write or think.

Where is my Carthusian cell?
