Saturday Morning

By Amy

Because I had a particularly hard week that ended with an aching back and a few more grey hairs, my wife let me sleep in until 10am today.

Then she took the five year old and left to spend the day in the city, leaving me to do WHATEVER I PLEASE with my morning. Isn’t she nice? No, you cannot have her.

Cue the Roku stream of Rachel Maddow’s Friday show about our withdrawal from Iraq, couch, and a big awesome bowl full of coffee.

That’s pretty dorky, I guess.

But I don’t care. It was bliss. Even Cherry the Terrible Dog enjoyed it. And she never enjoys anything unless it comes out of the garbage can.
