Day 4
I know I was going to write every day, but you know, things happen and well, “whatever” as us Homies in the Avenue say now
So got up, bright and breezy at 7.30am. O.k that’s a lie, I was woken up around 9 by the smoke alarm, the darling kids decided to make a surprise breakfast. Seriously who toasts Weetabix?
9.30am
Computer on the kids are in the garden having an Easter egg hunt, I should get a good hour before they realise there are no eggs out there.
86 emails today, 85 are spam. The other one is John a big client who wants to zoom in 5 minutes.
Quick brush through my hair and check my shirt, yes I am suited and booted still, well topside anyway.
The call goes well for the first 10 minutes, then John asks do you just have the one dog?
“Erm yes” I said, he laughs and says “well its very hygienic” Apparently he has spent the last 10 minutes licking his balls in the back ground. I swear I will find a safe place to Skype.
11.00am
World war 3 starts in the garden as the kids begin to realise there are no eggs, so I sit them down in the lounge to do a bit of school work, I have managed to link the laptop to the tv so they can see it on the big screen. I know cool or what, except I cant turn it back, so we had no TV last night, or for the las 2 nights. On the plus side I got a b+ in maths.
1,00pm
My planning is going well, I have mindmaps and to do lists coming out of my ears, the problem is I am not actually doing as every time I start on a list I get an email and find myself looking at a cool new erectile disfunction tool and then the internet pops up and Jan is sending a free hug which I have to pass on to 100 people or I will die in a painful puddle of mush.
3.00pm
Well I have done a bit this afternoon its been nice and quiet, had a break through with the Jones and Mayer account and am on the verge of getting some new work in, a company in Barking are interested, lovely lady called Maisey has asked for a brief, so its top of the list tomorrow.
Anyway time for a well earned cup of tea and, oh! check on the kids, Oh crap the KIDS!!
