"EVERYBODY... QUIET!"
The emails. The texts. The phone calls. The kids. The boss. The Crazies.
o. m. G.
I thought of Sharpay in my inability to sleep early this morning. The scene is the East High cafeteria in High School Musical 1.
The kids are running around the cafeteria singing, "Stick to the Status Quo," when Sharpay stands on a table and shouts that out, immediately silencing everyone in the room.
I liken it to the Calgon commercials of the 70s, "Calgon, take me away..." and the "Serenity, NOW!" episode of Seinfeld in the 90s.
Some days, it's all too much. At once.
And what to do about it? I'm not sure. It made me giggle just thinking about Sharpay.
My immediate solution was a deep breath, some Sudafed, Excedrin and the blog.
And sincere desire that today might be better.

I hope today (Wednesday)is a better day for you, Jean! I think every mom has days like that, and it's exponentially harder when you don't have another adult to give you an immediate break from the kids.
Work...is work. Can't help you there. Round 2 of layoffs happening here today. I'm allegedly "safe", but I'll believe it when I see it.
I, too, like to quote HSM regularly. My daughter thinks that makes me a nerd, which only makes me do it more!
Whats funny is that I knew exactley what you meant when I read the blog title, and me being a 44 year old man makes it funny. I will be praying for you :)
