How is it 1pm? Seriously, it was 9.30am just minutes ago! Well, two hundred and ten minutes ago anyway! Don't get me wrong; I love that the morning went so fast because it means there is less time to wait until Fathership's return to assist with the taming of the beasts but...

Your just trying to justify the fact that you love to spend all day in your pj's. This just fluffs it all up with fancy words - nice try Mothership I see right through you.
Oh dear slender octopus; if you're anything like me, you would have been DREADING that first day without the backup! I still feel rather scared in the mornings!
ellie, ellie, ellie; you know me too well! My PJs, in fact, have gotten holes in them of late (they are getting so much wear!)
