Also he shares his Struggle Bus of fear of missing out on kid events now that he has a new 9-5 while Annie is put in the Overcommitment Corner for taking on a giant holiday project a week and half before Halloween.

Thanks to everyone who came out to our story time at Chevaliers and who came to see the Dumb Dads Live at Dynasty Typewriter. We recap these events and talk about another week back in school. Our daughter runs for student council and we can't help but try to write some jokes into her speech. Also a brief Adderall update from Kevin and at the very end in case you want to skip for your own mental health we talk about being affected by the school shooting in MN. Take care of yourselves and we love you!
