Muscle pain on a stick

     Finally made my way down to the Minnesota State Fair today. It was supposed to be a guy's day out, just me and the boy, but the wife decided to use some vacation time to come along, which was fine.
     Had a pretty good time, the weather was nice, and the boy was having fun and in a good mood. I had a foot long hot dog, then tried a deep-fried snickers bar on a stick. I don't regret eating it, but I'm not hoping to have another one.
     Last night, the wife cautioned that I should take the stroller along, for all the walking would surely tire out my son too quickly. Well, he's 3, and it is a lot of walking, but I think he's too big for a stroller, so I had planned on just taking a lot of breaks,  mixing in some shoulder-riding time. That plan worked well until it was time to leave. My son was getting a little cranky, and didn't want to walk back to the car. About 6 blocks from the car, I realized how badly my shoulders and neck were going to be sore tomorrow, a day I plan on helping a friend move. All of this after helping a different freind move a truckload of furniture last night.
So to recap; work 12 hour days Friday, Saturday, Sunday, move heavy furniture Monday, fair walking with son Tuesday, help other friend move to new apartment on wednesday. Thursaday, I'm going to melt into the couch all day. All... Day.
