OK. I'm awake...

[mdlbear]

...for suitably small values of awake. Got up at my usual 6:15 or so; the careful reader will note that this means I'm running (if you can call it that) on about 2 hours' worth of sleep. Don't try this at home. (All bets are off at a con.)

In a few minutes I'll try rousing the chaoswolf to see whether she's up for school -- I know she wants to get there by 8:30 to connect with her GF before a karate class at 9:30.

Then I have to drag myself over to my insurance agents' office to pay the earthquake insurance premium that the company stupidly, and for the first time, sent to my bank as a separate bill rather than as part of the regular homeowners' bill. Yes, I could change companies, but the cost would be about the same and it would provide more opportunities for screw-ups.

(9:15)update: The Wolfling's at school, looking and feeling a lot better than she did last night (not hard, but still encouraging). Her new bed is due sometime late this afternoon, so I have to go up to her room and finish clearing a space for it.

Sleep? What's that?
