June 11: Someone’s gonna pay

I’ve been up since 4 a.m.

Vic is still snoring away and it’s looking more and more like I’m going to have to make my own coffee. This day is just getting worse and worse.

I do not “do” mornings. I am not a morning person. So why the [censored] did I wake up so early? I could blame Casey, who shook her jangly collar one too many times. Or maybe I should blame it on:

• Rio
  
• The rain
  
• The bellboy
  
• The mistletoe
  
• The boogie
  
• Fidel
  
• The Bossa Nova
  
• [Aimee Mann’s new album]

Ooooh, that last one is tempting. Meh. I may never know. But I do know this: as soon as the kids are off to school I am soooooo going back to bed.
