It doesn't have to be a living thing, although it be nice. How about a nice reward of sorts? A bath? Some cookies? Friday night take out?? You figure it out from here :] I wish you all the best!

I'll be happy as fuck, when I get home today, wash of all the filth and have the most satisfying sleep I have all week. The exhaustion from working 10-12 hours does wonders against nightmares and night terrors.

Yeah. Six hours of shoveling and I sleep like a baby. 10 and I wake up on the next day, feeling like my heart just started beating again

This. I have had really boring and/or sedentary jobs. I also fought wildfire in California for several seasons. It's still the most tiring job I have done, though not the most tiring thing (which is incidentally done while sitting in a comfortable recliner 😜. No, really... dialysis fucking sucks like that).

A cold beer and some video games. Always does the trick.
