Brain Fog

 
It is shortly after 6am. Ma is stumbling around in the bathroom, try not to step on the squeaky parts of the floor and fervently looking forward to a nice, hot wake-me-up shower.

She runs the tub faucet...

("wow...this is cold...man...it's taking longer than usual to get warm...of course, a cold shower would REALLY wake me up...what's the matter with this thing?...what if the water heaters both conked out overnight!...I don't think I can force myself into this freezing water....what's the problem....*looks at tap*....oh...it's only turned on 'cold'...)

And that's how the morning began.

It is now noon...the kids have just been picked up from their first day of testing.

"Well, what did you think? Hard? Medium? Easy?"

Carolyn: "It was so easy ! The first three sections were just....easy!"

*grins*

Ethan: "Oh...OK. Some of those science questions were annoying."

"Hey, you don't have to get every question right. I'm sure you did fine."

Nolan: "I had to use the bathroom 3 times."

*blinks*
