Perfect Storm

This Morning: the Plan:

• The Spouse has to leave at 6am (or close to) for an early start at work.
• Sarcasm Girl is arriving early in the AM because she has doctor appointments in the city.
• Avocado wants to get up half an hour early (6:30) because she has a bit of leftover work to finish.
• I will get up early from my bed of sleep and

This Morning: the Monkey Wrenches:

• The Spouse is indeed racketing around at Far To Early in the AM, but I slept through it more or less.
• However, Sarcasm Girl called at 6:05 from the BART station downtown: she's thrown up, feels fainty. Can someone pick her up at the BART station near home?
• Avocado, wakened at 6:30, announces that she is going to do the work on the bus, and is going back to bed.
• Discover a text from client sent last night: one of the files I sent yesterday is the wrong one. (How the hell did that happen?)

This Morning: the Me:

• Up at 6:05 for SG's phone call. Dress, alternately fretting and sighing.
• Sarcasm Girl calls. I walk over to BART to escort her pale, shaky self back to the house. Shovel her into a bed with a bucket and a glass of water.
• Wake Avocado, with whom I have the conversation about sleeping for another half hour. Point out to her that when she gets up early I get up early, and I don't go back to bed. Dammit.
• Boot up computer to resend file, discover email from client sent at 2:30 this morning; she's reconstituted the file, don't worry about sending it in the AM.
• In celebration, and since I'm already up: make chocolate chip pancake batter, wash last night's pots, empty dish washer.
• Wake Avocado. Feed her. Sarcasm Girl shambles in. Feed her. Make coffee. Suddenly remember that I have to make Avocado's lunch. Do so. Begin to feel rather groggy.

Today: the Plan

• Chiropractor at 9:45.
• Pick up CityCarShare car at 10:30.
• Take Sarcasm Girl to doctor appointment.
• Stop at Target.
• Take Sarcasm Girl to other doctor appointment
• Return car to CityCarShare.
• Drag Emily
• Attempt to get some work done.
• Go to high school open house tonight.

Let's see what monkey wrenches get thrown next, shall we?

Worldbuilding 101

Over on Deep Genre, kateelliot, aberwyn and sartorias are talking about putting together a Worldbuilding Workshop, and I'm going to play too, since this is something I have a thought or two about. Anyone have any questions or subjects they're particularly interested in seeing covered?
