It's paradise for me. If the paperwork gets boring I just drop it, walk into my shop and start building, or hop on a machine. I'm free any given minute to do whatever's in my heart, I'll leave to play hockey a few times a week.
If you could create your own ADD workspace how would you structure it?

Never diagnosed but it's likely. I own a company with a dozen employees so my attention gets pulled to something new every few minutes and I thrive in that. If you've watched The Pitt where people keep pulling Robbie to different fires before he can finish any one thing, that's most of my day

I could see a world where he leaves as a rental in the last year of that deal if the Oilers aren't looking like a lock for a deep run. If I'm a GM with even a remote chance at that I'm earmarking some salary, or praying for someone to put on IR

You better be putting them on the ends of your fingers

My 6 year old son is at the Blue Jays game and I'm incredibly jealous

Salt fat acid heat

I watched the first half of Alien last week with my 9 year old daughter, she handled it fine

Is it a bad idea to get a bunch of sushi and watch the second half tonight?

A photo of a toddler covering her face

This daycare picture of my daughter is my all-time favourite though

It's crazy it's still an industry. I pay $30 every year for pictures of my kids, something I have an almost infinite supply of

The babadook is famously a manifestation of grief and depression. Do you subconsciously feel like other people are bringing you their babadooks to take care of?
that's deep, man

Got Indian take-out tonight and watched Alien with my 9 year-old until a little after the chest-bursting scene.

There ain't more to life than that, people. This is it.

Damn, they should call you Mangione because you look good in every picture I see of you

Me standing in front of a fridge and stove with damaged walls from where old cabinets had been removed

Worked 10 hours (with a break for hockey at lunch), came home and started tearing out my cabinets to fit my new fridge that's coming next week.
Gonna skip my afternoon nap to hang out with my kids until my 2nd hour of hockey tonight.

Goddamn I'm gonna be dehydrated.

He won over the NDP candidate, who's local and such a good community minded person, by under 200 votes

Hold up now, I just started following you and I'm not terminally online, but you're goddamn stunning. Throw yourself into a river, or small lake if you must

People watching me at the self-checkout like "holy shit this guy can scan"

Actual names been absolutely on fire lately

A cooler inside an otherwise empty fridge

My fridge died a few days ago, it's 2 weeks until my new one is in. Instead of picking up a used one or buying a mini, I trimmed down my cold goods to one cooler with ice.

I could easily afford to solve this problem, but my kids' lives are already too easy, I want them to know some struggle

Always do the hardest thing first

I have an employee who's wife is due to give birth tomorrow, I told him to take this week and next off, with pay.
He keeps showing up. I tell him he doesn't have to be here, go home and help his extremely pregnant wife.

She's being induced tomorrow morning, he told me he should be in after lunch

If you've ever struggled with a DivX Codec, you're not alone

I love to withdraw to the basic comforts of my enclosure, where onlookers can only gawk from a safe distance

I want to eat that imaginary food from Hook

Dreams where you're going through smaller and smaller areas probably relate to when you were born, travelling down the birth canal.
Tell me, did you drive through your mother's vagina at the end of the dream?

I own a small business, I regularly tell my employees "I hate work, I hate capitalism, I hate that we have to be here but we all love cheeseburgers and Netflix and this is the only way I know to get those things, so let's make this as painless as possible"

A firepit with a cast iron pot on a grille above it cooking ground beef

A cast iron pot directly on the coals of a fire with a cooked cheesy lasagna visible inside

Went camping, decided to try making a lasagna directly on the fire. Turned out way better than expected and gave my 6 year old practice maintaining a good fire

The white cat is blind and has a best friend, a black cat, who is always by its side to guide it.

A wooden sculpture of two birds, one of them is on a branch, propped up with a pillow

Started rebuilding this crazy wooden sculpture, pretty sure this came from a rich grandpa that I never really knew. It's been long neglected but it's beautifully crafted.

Now this room smells of super toxic glue, I kinda like it

Almost every day around 2pm I take a 15-20 minute nap. Got a couch in my office, an upstairs sleeping room in my shop for more dedicated naps, but most days I just run home, snooze, get a coffee and go back.
If I can't get the nap in I'm useless
