DAY 1: Eat a burrito at your steady job during your lunch break.
DAY 2: Have a kid punch you in the genitals to wake you up.

DAY 10: Remember that time you were good at sports? Man, wasn’t that so great?

DAY 19: Whenever you see a pull-up bar, grab it and pretend you are about to knockout some pull-ups. Wonder quietly what doing a single pull-up feels like.

DAY 21: Show off your new Dadbod to your wife by first flagging her down on Facebook then ignoring her eye roll and laughter — she isn’t in touch with how turned on she is right now.
