I’m addicted to energy drinks. I’ve had one every day this week. I’m like an addict.
Thankfully, they’re the sugar-free kind because when I’m chugging chemicals, it’s the sugar I’m most worried about.
I don’t know if they’re helping. The first can, on Monday, felt like being shot out of a cannon. It’s Friday, and I just finished a can, and my body reacted as though I just ingested a cup of warm cider.
This is all my fault. I bought the four-pack to save money, but that means there’s a can in my fridge instead of making my lazy ass run to the store to get a fix.
The fifth can came from last week’s pack.
Now that I think about it, I’ve been addicted for much longer than just the week.
I’m sure this can will in right before bed.
Here are the funniest tweets and memes from dads this week.

I taught my 4yo to play rock, paper scissors, and he taught me that he’s a goddamn cheater who will do anything to win.

10: “I hate school! Why do I even have to go!”
Me: “Look, if you do well in school, you can get into a good college. If you get into a good college, you can get a good job. And if you get a good job, you can retire early. And then, you can relax.”
10: “Or… I can relax now.”

I've convinced my kids that they can hypnotize me to fall asleep when I'm chasing them and it's their new favorite game. I'll literally lay down for a 10-minute nap in the hallway and they won't bug me because it "breaks their spell." It's my greatest win as a parent thus far.

Kids: Do you know what’s for dinner?
Me: Yes.
And then I walked away. Today’s lesson is about asking the right questions and how words matter.
