I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I am sleepy. However, I have to go to a leadership seminar at work, so coffee it is.

Morning question: what time do you get up, leave the house, get to work?

Me: up various times (don't use an alarm), out of bed at 6:30, leave the house at 7:35, get to work at 7:50, work officially starts at 8. There are children involved, obviously; we all commute together, drop Casper off at school about 7:40, then Dillo and mr. flea drop me - day care is at mr. flea's work.

7:50 - Walk Kids to Bus Stop

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Schedule Right Now:

Get up: 7-ish
Leave: 7:40-ish
Get to work: 8-ish.

In three weeks that will change a bit since my work hours will go back to 9-5. Woohoo! I will probably get up a bit earlier to get Em her breakfast and do some yoga.

“Not dead yet!”

Alarm at 6:15 (theoretically for the kids, too, but Nate's forever hitting the snooze).

Lewis takes Nate to bus stop at 7:10

I take Abby to bus stop at 7:50

Lewis goes to work at 8:15

I start working about the same time. (I don't like starting until the house is empty.)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Up: 5:30ish (looks at clock...I guess it's a very loose and fuzzy "ish" this morning)

Putter around on computer a bit

6:15 Put away yesterday's dishes, get coffee started, wash last night's dishes, tidy the kitchen (if it's an Emmett morning, make sure his afternoon snack is in his backpack)

6:45 Hec comes out with Matilda, I take her and cuddle her while he finishes the coffee

6:50-7:10 (Emmett days) Make sure both kids are awake, fed and clothed while Hec showers, then they all head out the door

7:10-7:50 Breakfast, shower, tidy living room and bathroom, try to remember lunch, head out the door

or 6:50-7:50 (non-Emmett days) Hec and I split the waking, feeding, clothing and breakfast for ourselves while taking turns in the shower; Matilda either ignores me completely in the thrill of picking out shoes for the day, or hugs me piteously and says, "Mommy, I want to go to work for you!" and I'm out the door
