morning
Morning has broken; Zack climbs on me, announces it is 6:57. His tone implies he finds my ridiculous behavior - recumbent in the dark - appalling.
I pull him in closer.
Thoughts form, free fall: unfinished Christmas cards, my messy house, dinner & dates with Jen & Stephanie, Juno - oh please go see Juno - journals and lotions and the book I'm reading...
Inches above me, Zack implores me to get up. My nose recalls the cold I'm kicking to the curb.
Lexi walks in and buys me a few more minutes. Soon I'll roll out of bed and pour the coffee and the day will unfold.
But some mornings it's hard to get up when the staying down was working quite nicely for me, thank you.

And you mentioning 'lotion' right after Juno makes me chuckle & cringe a litte, remembering the little note she wrote in Paulie's yearbook...
Have a lovely Saturday! I promise St. Cupcake next time!
Can't wait to see Juno. My daughter and I are going to see Margot at the Wedding this afternoon.
Really liked this one.
I've been hearing a lot about JUNO and am particularly interested in it, as I'm an adoptive mother - as you know. Personally, I'm just jealous that you've gotten out with a girlfriend to see a movie. Period.
