Jake’s Life

Every weekend I spend with Sandro. Most of my weekend, anyway. Depending on what we have going on (homework, errands, work, etc.) we always set aside time for each other. Take for instance this weekend: I have a five page paper due on Tuesday evening, and after my Thu-Sat weekend I work, so I try to get homework done during those three days. Most of that homework was done with him sleeping next to me clamped onto my arm, sometimes snoring. I kept odd hours, asleep at 4 a.m., awake at noon.I had to clean out my garage which took some time. I had to do a few other things as well. He was patient, let me do what I needed to do, and even though we were not directly interacting the entire time we at least spent it together.

Every weekend when I drop him off at home and get back to work I can never wrap my mind around how I got what we have.
