My friend and I call it Ghosting.

If you're married with kids, you'll know what I mean.

This is when you take a "mental health day" for yourself (either vacation day, sick day, etc) and go do whatever you want; and it doesn't adversely affect the rest of your family/wife at all. This is especially for people with possessive wives, or kid obligations. You leave the house "for work" and come home "from work"; but work considers you on vacation.

So my constraints are: 8:30 am to 6 pm weekday.

Ideas?

Obvious ideas:
- movie
- gokarting
- beach
- long drive
- ???

I need to do this soon before I go crazy.

 

I say go to the beach with a 6 pack of beer. or get a 6 pack of beer and then gokarting? haha

moral of the story: beer

 

hahah wow i've never heard of that saying before but i've done it...hahah I just tell my wife i'm going to "work" and I drop the kids off to day care and later around 6:30pm I come home from "work" hahaha so it's "ghosting" huh I like. I normally use those days to play with my car hahah or do car related stuff :RockOn - not mine:

ps...I also know what you mean by going crazy!!!! But hasn't been to bad recently

 

****

 

my married friends call it "let's go bowling"...

i call it "lets go to strip club"...

gives new meaning to the 7-10 split. if you catch my drift...

 

Golf?

D&B?

 

yesterday went to stinson beach, san fran for dinner and back home in sac

 

As you are walking out, slap her *** and say, "I'll be where im at!!"

 

this reminds me of the, correct me if im wrong, the bud light commercial? where he had to do some "venting" haha

 

"I think we're gonna have to vent some more"

hahahaha

 

I think my gf said she saw an oprah about this. thats cool and all, I mean, to each his own, but is this really the forum to discuss this? are you soliciting? life on the dl must be difficult.

haha j/k.
