    Wouldn't your morning be so much easier if you could go from full-sleep to walking out the door 10 minutes later as I do? Doesn't that require a degree of preparation the night before, setting out clothes and prepping the lunch to be left in the fridge and just grab-and-go?

    Would you accept as apology the notion I was just busting your chops, not attempting to make a personal attack? And can't I sympathize, since I've been on the receiving end of long-commutes, late-hours-early-return myself from time to time?

    Don't you know I wasn't offended? And wasn't I asleep within 15 minutes of getting home? Wouldn't laying out clothing and making my lunch the night before, while saving time in the morning, in fact, add time to the night before? Wouldn't it then be a time 'wash'? Also, aren't I happy to be freelance and glad that this job ends on Thursday? Isn't my next job at a nice resort, where it'll be a 10-minute walk to work from my hotel room to the workroom or ballroom?

    Doesn't my husband annoy me for this very reason? How he can leave the house after 15 mins doing bare minimum and look ruggedly hansome but if I do it people are no doubt making comments about how exhausted I look? Does this mean he is aging like fine wine while I'm aging like milk? 😭🤣

    @cmsienk a resort you say? Take me with??

    Do you know how jealous I am of the concept of being asleep within 15 minutes of lying down? Can't my wife be asleep in under 5 minutes, but unless utterly exhausted it always takes me at LEAST 30 minutes, often longer?

    @nossmf, have you tried any of the breathing apps that are out there? Haven't I found one on my watch that works for me? Isn't the method I use the 4-7-8 method: inhaling for 4 seconds, holding breath for 7 seconds, exhaling for 8 seconds? Doesn't the act of consciously focusing on my breathing (while also relaxing my body) keep my mind occupied when it would otherwise be cluttered with a myriad of things to think or worry about? Should I add the caveat YMMV?

    Aren’t I team “fall asleep the minute my head hits the pillow” due to 12 hour work days and an inability to sleep between midnight and 3am? Speaking of which does anyone want to have an online party with me in 4 hours? 😴

    Don't I hope to be in dreamland between 10pm and 5am? 😴🛌

    Did I not show up for my own party??? Will you forgive me for my rudeness?

    Maybe. Will you invite us all to the next one?

    Isn't a good thing you didn't make it to the party? Perhaps you slept through the night?

    Isn't it spring cleaning here? Aren't I hauling garage sale items out to my sister in laws this afternoon and don't I love getting rid of stuff? How's your day @cmsienk? Get enough sleep?

    Didn't I get 5 hours of sleep last night, which is one more hour than I got the night before? Aren't I thankful tomorrow is my last day on this job?

    My second son is graduating high school today...do you know how emotional my wife is as a result? Is her emotional state even more raw due to my son planning on enlisting in the Army, which is causing my wife's protective instincts to kick into hyperdrive?

    Doesn't she sound like an amazing mama? Also graduation on a Wednesday? Or just last day of school?

    Would YOU be willing to go back to school AFTER you graduate? Isn't my son gently rubbing it into his sisters' faces that his time in school is over, while they have another week to go before summer break starts?

    Summer breaks start this early? Won’t my son be upset if he finds out since his starts at the end of June?

    When does his next school year begin? Does it also start correspondingly late, say end of September? Or does he have a short break before back to school? What would he think about my kids' school year starting end of August?

    I thought graduations were always on Saturdays? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Maybe just here? Don't my kiddos end school the last week of May and school starts early Sept? Aren't we not complaining as we get the best months for break?

    Just randon days of the week huh? They don't make it easy on the parents do they? Wasn't ours on a Sat and then we got locked in the school for the all night grad party... Wonder if they still do that?

    Isn't that how mine was too (Saturday graduation, then locked in the school for an all night party)?

    What?!?! May to the end of August? Don't classes resume the day after Labour day here? Are you headed off to Google to see if our Labour day with the u is the same as yours? Shall I save you the typing and confirm it’s a yes?

    Didn't I spend all night at Disneyland which was populated with a few thousand graduates from multiple schools?
