Why do we say “slept like a baby” when babies literally wake up screaming every two hours?

I want to sleep like a middle-aged dad who “rests his eyes” during a Marvel movie and wakes up refreshed, confused, and ready to barbecue.

We're a species that loves us some tools. I firmly believe that even if you find the most useless, layabout, consumerist slob on the planet, and you asked them what kind of tool they dream about, they'd have an answer for you. Everyone has just that "one more tool" that would finally let them do even bigger projects.

For me, I wish it were just one more tool. It started innocently, as a desire to purchase a drill press. Often, things I was working on required a hole drilled and/or pressed into them. It made sense. There were hundreds of holes I needed to drill. And then, just as quickly as I opened the box, the desire for another tool grew. If only I had a table saw, I could saw some things, too. You can pretty much figure out how that went from there.

Now, I live atop a throne of tools so weird that they don't even have names in English, and I want even more. If only I had three-phase power to my garage, then I could finally get the six-axis CNC machine of my dreams. I'd make one hell of an adapter bracket with that apartment-sized machine, I'll tell you that much.

It's important not to lose sight of the bigger picture, though. Tools are meant to help people, not just to be hoarded. Many people around you – your neighbours, maybe even your friends – exist in a reality where they don't even know there are different kinds of screwdrivers. Frightening, I know. You can do a lot to help them out, by showing them all the cool new tools that you own, and making them want those tools for themselves.
