all we have to do is be alive when it's over.
Okay. So you're a parent, and you write a to-do list on two different days. The list stays the same, however. It lists:
clean kitchen
start laundry (note "start" and not "do." Just start it)
grocery store for small stuff
exercise
make 3 phone calls
On one of those days, you sail through that list and by 10:30am, you're looking around thinking, "Now what am I going to do?"
On the other day, at 10:30am you amend the list. All it says now is, "Survive without bloodshed."
Today is one of the latter days.
