Fashion Quiz

Morgan went to school with a blue shirt, green shorts, and pink shoes. Please choose one of the following reasons:

 

A - Today was 80s dress-up day.

B - Both I, and Morgan, are color blind.

C - Susan is out of town.

 

If you guessed "C", you nailed it. 100% for you, please give yourself a scratch-n-sniff sticker as a reward. Susan's in San Francisco this week for a GSA conference. While Susan's out of town, my days go like this:

 

6:30am - Wake up, shower, get dressed.

7:00am - Wake kids up, get them dressed, deal with morning drama. (*1)

7:30am - Drop kids off at daycare, go to work.

 

(Work)

 

4:00pm - Pick up kids at daycare.

4:30pm - Arrive at home, unwind with kids.

6:00pm - Fix dinner, deal with dinner drama. (*2)

8:30pm - Give Morgan bath.

9:00pm - Put Morgan to bed / Put Mason in bath.

9:30pm - Put Mason to bed.

10:00pm - Deal with bedtime drama. (*3)

10:00pm to Midnight - Watch TV, work on my book.

 

Rinse, repeat, try and make it through the week.

 

*1 - Morning drama typically involves one of the following: kid does not want to wear clothes that were laid out the night before, kid forgot to tell me the night before that kid needs to take x$ to school, kid decides he/she doesn't want to eat at daycare and would rather eat at home and/or McDonald's, or kid comes up with some bizarre thing to throw a fit about that only makes sense in kid's brains (ie: "there's no school today because it rained yesterday.")

 

*2 - Dinner drama typically involves one of following: kids cannot agree on what/where to eat, kid(s) don't want to eat anything, and the worst, kid(s) decide that they don't want to eat whatever was just prepared/purchased. (Tonight's battle? Two kids, but only one official Shrek brand TV dinner. Had to use a Sharpee draw Cinderella on the other one.)

 

*3 - Bedtime drama is almost always the same: for some reason, kid(s) cannot go to bed. All the usual make believe kid reasons apply here: room is too hot or cold, kid doesn't like this particular shirt/pajama, or this week's classic, "you covered me with the wrong side of the blanket."

 

My parents told me a long time ago not to sweat the small stuff. Now I see why; there's not enough hours in the day.

I would have liked to have seen you guys! That show was so poorly organized that we missed everything. We drove down from OKC and were really disappointed. Have you guys contacted Crossbow about performing at OVGE this year? It's a moderately sized retrogaming show that takes place yearly in Tulsa, OK. This year's show is August 9th. Check out the site at ovge.com. I know they have had performers there before -- and even if you don't come out to perform, you might come just to hang out!

Thanks for the tip. We'll play anywhere that will cover travel expenses, and the drive from Fayetteville, AR to Tulsa, OK is so short that it could be a great one-day trip. I'll get in touch and see.
