Had sort of a borderline meltdown today at work, my first one at the new gig and I’m a bit disappointed in myself. It was a byproduct of too many deadlines to meet and some ill-timed email issues. I got through it okay, but I’ve realized I need to chill out a bit more. Interestingly enough, it was a fresh out of college account executive who told me I need to stop taking things so seriously. And, she’s right. I’ve always had a problem with taking things home with me at night, too often thinking about work after I leave for the night. Obviously, I still need to work on it, lest I start to resent my job.

Which bring me to my worry about going to the Frozen Four. Work and family are making the timing of it horrible. Yet, I’m worried if I don’t go, I’ll forever hold it against work. My only hope is to see if I can work from the road. Other than that, things are good, and yes, I still have much to write about this fatherhood business.
