It's Always Darkest Before The Dawn

It's 1:30 a.m.

I woke up about 15 minutes ago; the CW was showing the final episode of Will & Grace so I watched it through to the end. Seems as though it was just yesterday that the series ended but I'd already forgotten what happened.

Then it was time for a snacky-doo. Eating cookies isn't good for my diet but, hey, I was good today!

Mom is awake in the living room watching t.v.

Me: What's going on?

Mom: I can't figure this out. Is it night or day? It's dark out.

Me: I know, it's 1:30 in the morning.

[I savor a Pinwheel cookie, enjoying it in three bites.]

Mom: I can't figure this out. [She points at the television.] The t.v. is on.

Me: Yep, they've got programs on all the time nowadays.

Mom: Well I can't figure it out. Is it morning?

Me: Yes, it's 1:30 in the morning.

[I return to my room, and start blogging.]

And so it goes.
