Happy three days off! I mean, Independence day!

Do you ever get the feeling you're acting like a total douchebag, but you just can't stop yourself? For me it's an occasional thing and it usually occurs when interacting with either my child or my spouse... Okay, honestly, it was just today. And toward the child in particular. But seriously, does this happen to you? It's like having a dream or watching a movie of yourself speaking... "You sound so annoying. Just stop doing that. No really, just stop! Shut up now!" In my partiuclar, ahem, movie of my own douchebaggery, I have become that most annoying of species, the pushy as hell parent. As in, "why aren't you still stretching every day? Did you ever get in that track workout? For god's sake, run some trails next week!" Egad. The poor child should never have taken up my sport. Had it been laps in a pool, I would have been pleasantly disassociated and neglectful, but no. Kid had to be a runner.
