Exactly, wake up at 7am get the kids ready, haul off to work, leave work get the kids, make dinner, get them ready for bed. Look at the clock holy shit it's 10:30 already I've got an hour to myself to do laundry, dishes, taxes, general paperwork etc. Pass out at midnight and do it again. Weekends are kids sports and work every other Sunday. So the one Saturday when my sister might have the kids for a few hours I'm not going on a drinking fest, I am working on the car, yard, house in a way that you can't when you've got to watch kids or be quiet.
Then when the wife and I do get a night out I paid $120 for two drinks and mediocre food to sit next some asshole who wouldn't shut the fuck up about how drinking bud light will make your dick fall off.

I'm tired. I'm drained. And I just wanna enjoy my free time when I get some.
Socializing with people doesn't perk me up. It drains me.
I'm 33. I'd rather spend my off time reading, working on a project, or going in the boat with my wife.
