trick question: what's more annoying than a child who wakes you up at 5.30 am?
A child who wakes you up at 5.30 am then goes back to sleep in yourbed of course!
actually, even more annoying are friends of friends whom you've only emailed as a favour to a real friend who's moving to their town, who respond to your information about studying with "lucky you" and a little declaration about how hard it is for her to work part time and look after kids as well. like studying isn't a real occupation? of course I'm writing as well, and doing that whenever I get a free moment, but I didn't really want to get into all that with her.
a publisher has agreed to look at my silly manuscript for a children's picture book, all 160 words of it. I'm almost embarrassed to have called it a manuscript.

Children who wake you up at 5:30 am to tell you they have to go potty... even though they are perfectly capable of going by themselves... and then crawl into your bed.
