'Out Of Gas'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I do remember being seriously pissed off at my mother for putting me in the morning session instead of afternoon because I would miss Captain Kangaroo. I just couldn't understand why she would do such a thing to me.
I was similarly upset about having to miss Underdog. Though I've always been under the impression the school chose which session to schedule kids for, though it's entirely possible my 5-year-old self leapt to that conclusion and my mother saw no reason to disuade me.

My mom put me in morning preschool and morning kindergarten on purpose because even as a wee child, I was not a morning person and she thought that by having me go to morning school, it would "train me" to get up early for school.
It didn't work.
I shall have to ask my Mom what session of kindergarten into which I was put -- I seem to remember morning, but who knows? If it was left up to me as a parent, I'd choose afternoon, which is the time when I'd be begging to have the children removed from the home so I could get a nap or something.
Possibly, it's a good thing that I've not yet been a mother.

Hi Nilly!
Kat, why are you still up?
Hey, Kat! Hey, Lee! How are you lovely ladies doing? How is 2007 treating you?
(Yes, I've skipped, so I have no idea how anybody is doing)
Nilly. did you see the pics of JZ and Matilda? [link]
Happy Shrifty Birthday!
Kat, why are you still up?
Still is such a funny word choice.
I fell asleep at ~6:00 PM and slept through to 11:00. Now I'm up (and yawning) and my goal is to get back to sleep before 2 and sleep until 6.
2007 is good, Nilly. Today's ultrasound was good (haven't announced here yet, but yes, you all, I'm pregnant with twins). One twin is slightly bigger than the other. Both are incredibly squirmy. Markers that would show up on a scan for Down's syndrome or spinal bifida were not there. So things look good enough.
This doc is worried about pre-eclampsia, so I'm on baby aspirin to fix blood flow. Mmm... tasty tasty baby aspirin.
So that's my story of the day. That and cleaning. Which reminds me, I have more books to post.
