Returning to Work
So, I'm not sure if I mentioned it previously, but I've been home from work for a month now. Nothing serious like I got fired or anything... I was hurt while at work. Not on the clock mind you, but in the vacinity while on lunch. Some of the roads in Philadelphia are just not good... and as well as you try to navigate, sometimes it just don't happen. One such day, I stepped on some uneven pavement and rolled my ankle to the point it seemed fractured. Which is what the doctor actually diagnosed me having. The doc told me to stay home but I didn't want any trouble at work so I tried to goto work anyway. This didn't work out so well. The boot I was prescribed really didn't work well and made most of my activities painful. So, I took some coworkers advice and applied for STD. That's not sexually transmitted disease... its stands for short term disability. During which my pay would be taken care of @ 75% my normal rate. This isn't half bad, but I wouldn't be eligible for any type of bonus for this month... seeing as I wasn't there participating... In a nut shell, they're paying me 75% my hourly to stay home and rest.... Well, it's ending. Tomorrow I'm officially back to work. I hope this house can get along without me... I know the wife would've loved me home a little longer considering we just had baby Ethan on the 13th.

Anime Revisited!
An oldie but terribly good...
So here's why I watched it again... I was introducing my family to anime. Its pretty much that simple. They aren't really into watching much but I got them to agree to watch this because everyone gets a night and we watch something on Netflix. I simply used my night for anime... My wife didn't mind it and my middle daughter was actually watching and appeared to like it. My oldest however kept saying it was boring... BOOO!
The Devil is a Part-timer
(Hataraku Maou-sama!)
Plot: The Demon Lord Satan and one of his generals, Alciel, escape the world of Ente Isla through a gate to modern Tokyo, Japan after being confronted by the Hero Emilia and her companions. However, due to the lack of magic in the modern contemporary world, both Satan and Alciel change into forms representing what they would look like if they were human. In order to survive, Satan takes a part-time job in a fast food restaurant named MgRonald while Alciel serves as his houseman. One day, Satan, who now goes by Sadao Maō, meets a girl who is actually the Hero Emilia, who now goes by Emi Yusa. The story then unfolds and explores the personalities of each of the characters and their moral values. More characters show up from Ente Isla and they too face the new world dilemmas, often comically.

So, seeing as we've now finished this.. I now need to pick a new show to make them watch... Can't think of what to pick.. I'll have to take my time.
Sooooooooooo many choices... [MY LIST]
