I would love to sit down to write, sure,
but first I have to get the laundry started.
I would love to take a few minutes to plot,
but we are out of milk and I don’t know why nobody told me yesterday when I had to go to the store (no, I don’t drink milk so how would I know that?)
I also have to pick up granola, the only thing one of my children eats for breakfast.
She is going through a tough time now and is having trouble eating,
so I can’t just tell her to eat something else.
I don’t know what to cook for dinner,
but I know the next 3 titles of the essays I want to write.
I know my house is a mess, I probably should at least vacuum it.
But do tell me do people really dust every week?
Really? (chewing on my pencil absentmindedly)
