Having Alison now in my life I have renewed my priorities on how to spend my time.  The less spare time I have, the more valuable it becomes.  In my pre-Alison life I would tend to procrastinate and slack more in my spare time.  Now that she’s here, eating up most of it, I really focus my time on things that make me feel productive.

It’s so ironic that I now have the fire to work on my side-projects when I have the least amount of time.

So really, for the past few weeks since I got back to work my life has been a repetitive cycle of this:

• Sleep for a couple of hours in the night.
• Head to work for 10 hours.
• Come back home by 5 pm, and by then Renata is exhausted from taking care of Alison all day, so I soothe and take care of the baby until  11 pm or so.  That gives Renata enough time to get in a couple hours of sleep so that she doesn’t die from sleep deprivation.
• Sometime between 5 and 11 I squeeze in maybe an hour or so of learning Python/Pylons or work on my side-project.

Some days I feel so completely exhausted with nothing left in the tank.  But most days I feel like I wouldn’t have it any other way.

At any rate, my TV/movie/video-game consumption has pretty much dropped to zero, and it feels great.
