1. NOTHING gets me up at 6:00 a.m. (5:00 in my time zone)
Edited on Wed Jun-03-09 09:49 PM by The Velveteen Ocelot
But I'm sure I'll be able to watch the speech on Youtube later.

12.  I have a 4 year old as well, they invade my bed every morning!
Edited on Wed Jun-03-09 10:00 PM by Jennicut
They are my cutie pies even if the last nearly 5 years has meant less sleep. :) The 3 year old likes to wake up early but her sister likes to sleep in a bit more.
At almost 4 and 5 the girls are much much easier. In the early days when I had a 3 month old and 15 month old...wow, I was sooo tired.
Having kids a year apart is kind of crazy but fun too.

13. That would be 3:00 AM for me.
Not likely. Although I look forward to waking up and reading about how his speech kicked ass.

15. Is that the speech that will weaken our national security because he is going to basically say we...
are sorry for treating the rest of the world like they are our bitches? I saw Mittens on CNN this morning talking crap about it.

Just remember = talking bad. Torture = good for national security.

24. I'll listen to it later on.
Why get up at 6 for it? It'll be repeated several times during the rest of the day.

25. Not I... it will be on some site/channel/station every moment of the day tomorrow. : )
My seeing it live won't make the least bit of difference in my world or anyone else's... I can't WAIT to see/hear it, though! After a good nights' sleep. I'm on left coast time, so unless I'm still awake 3.5 hours from now, it's not on my agenda in real time. : )
