I call mine "the cats".
I call mine "the kids." DH can't wait until they are old enough to come downstairs, pour their own cereal and turn on cartoons by themselves. I have no answer. I envy people than can pop up with the alarm and get right on with their day. I slog through the morning until about 10.
I am alive but just barely. My wonderful sitter came over this morning and put Owen on the bus and took Liv to school. She'll pick the girl up and stay with her the rest of the day while I recover. I swear, I would hire this girl as my personal asistant/nanny full time if I could afford it. She's awesome with the kids and runs errands for me if I need it.
I feel like I've been hit by a truck and every time I cough, it hurts like hell. Headache won't go away for love or money. I can only take Tylenol because of my upcoming surgery and it's not cutting the pain. I'm going to have some tea and hopefully the caffeine will take care of that. At least I can go crawl back into bed.
HA! Where can I find that bit of brilliance?
A friend ganked it off of the ep for. I shall send it to you, yes? Profile addy?
Tim Gunn said "Holla"? There really is someone who'd be funnier than me saying that.
there was a contestant who was always saying "holla at your boy", and Tim asked him about it, and then tried it.
And IIRC, it was the funniest thing since, "Where's Andre?"
Oh good Cash, I'm glad someone was able to take on kid duties this morning. Poor you.
That's hilarious and I don't really watch that show.
Cash, yuck. I hope you feel better soon.
Vortex, profile addy works just fine.
the wake up music is key
Oh, I can't use music at all. I'd sleep right through that every morning. I need a loud, obnoxious noise.
I also have to rotate alarm clocks with different noises as I get used to the same noise after awhile.
I found mine wandering aimlessly 'round a gaming store, looking at the Shadowrun stuff. He wasn't on sale, per se, but I got a box of dice for taking him away from there.
Hmmmm...maybe I need to find the local gaming store?
Cashmere, rest today and take care of yourself. I recommend lots of sleep and tv.
Holla at your boy Tim Gunn style. [link]
When I was a teenager, I had an old tube radio alarm clock to help me get up. My brother Jeff had taken it to electronics class and somehow rigged it to go to eleven twenty-two.
I would set up the analog clock alarm on the radio to about halfway and placed it across the room, set to the worst radio station in town.
Most days, at the click and the 60-cycle hum of the tubes, I would be up and out of bed before I woke up.
