In which I die a little
I stayed up too late last night.
When don't I?
I tried to fall asleep around 3am -- 4am if you don't adjust for daylight savings time. But I just couldn't do it. The sound of my blood pounding in my ears should have kept my neighbors awake, let alone myself. I eventually fell asleep around 5am. I awoke at 9 feeling surprisingly refreshed. It will probably hit me later today, sometime after liturgy.
And now it's time for my kids and I to go make a graceful entrance just in time for the Gospel lesson. I don't like being late, but when it's just me and them, it's all I can do. I get them ready in plenty of time to actually be on time, but I just don't like managing them for an ENTIRE service. (Not even that they're that hard to manage. I just don't like how distracted it makes me.)
I am happy, in my own way.
