My Colorado Comrades in corporate environments take the time. I’ve seen a number of guys go out on Paternity since we enacted paid paternity leave in our state. It’s legally protected, we fought and voted for it. If your boss doesn’t like it they can eat shit and die because it’s your right. Your family is more important than some corporate nonsense.

The Eichler sounds amazing.

This is one of my partner and my biggest conflict points.

Like Gollum, she lives in the darkest, gloomiest basement, keeps the shades shut and only wants dim, warm amber light in the insufficient and poorly located light receptacles.

I on the other hand want to see what I’m doing and will open every window, tune the lights to the most white-hot, surface-of-the-sun white, and half the time I’m sitting in my hammock on the patio so I can feel the warm sunshine and get the omnidirectional sunlight. I’d like to set up her basement with some light tunnels and better lighting fixtures at some point.

I am objectively correct in this matter. :D
