Work

I spent most of the past week on the road, not in the typical fashion, but staying in a hotel. I have always liked being home at night, but being a dad makes it that much harder to stay away. It is part of the job, so I deal with it, but I do not stay in a hotel unless it is essential to the work I am doing. I spent the first week installing Star Wars and Wheel of Fortune Special Edition systems at a location too far away to drive every day from home. Last week, I worked at the same casino, installing a Partytime system. This week, I will be installing Star Wars and Twilight Zone games at another location a few hundred miles from home. For the third week in a row, starting tomorrow, I will be gone all week. It appears that this will be the last week that I will be on the road for days at a time, at least for awhile. That is a relief. I can drive 500 miles every day in this job and it doesn't bother me in the least. But the truth is, this is one guy who likes to be home with his family every night.
