Today's agenda:

it's 5:10 in the AM.... a list of things that I have done so far:

1. Just found the perfect early morning show to watch on the history channel.
2. I believe the sound of Ma Ma! is not coming from the television set.
3. Escort the girl to the big scary bathroom, that is right across the hall from her.
4. Tuck my girl back into bed.
5. I look out the window of her bedroom, which faces the street.
6. Watch the resident criminal wander in and out of people's driveways.
7. ~~Ping~~ I realise this is the resident criminal.
8. Sneeze 15 times.
9. Try and tuck the girl back into her bed, which she has now clearly refused to do since she has seen the criminal.
10. Tuck the girl into the den, and change my history channel show to something for an 8 year old.... like her favourite.... "killer instinct".
11. The criminal get's on a motorbike and makes his way through the connector trail... (where motorbikes do not go...)
12. Call on the Queens Cowboys (police) for some early morning patrols around the streets.
13. Formulate yet another conversation in my head to tell the boy and girl that this is how low you go when you are on drugs.
14. I almost forgot to let the little fraidy catdog inside.
15. Made some coffee.
