Running on Fumes

I'm home from Reno. The RWA conference was great, some really good stuff happened, nothing official to report yet, but hopefully soon. I went to bed at 1:20am this morning and got up at 3:43am to catch my flight. That is not a typo. That's not quite 2.5 hours of sleep. I got home about 9:30am and got reacquainted with the cats, the dog and, when he got out of bed, my son. I crashed later this afternoon (not on purpose) but my son kept saying "Get up, you said you'd finish playing cards with me..." I know why he wants my attention, and he deserves it, but things got to a point where I was just too tired. Finally told him to go away in a stern enough voice that he left me alone. More bad mommy, but he has this neverending version of War he wanted to finish playing. Literally, there's no way to make the game stop, and I was too tired to think I could cheat convincingly enough to lose quickly.

Shoot. I thought I had some interesting things to say, but I guess not. I may go to bed now. More bad mom. Oh, I remember one thing. I made all the CC authors look at pictures of my son (only two pics, but still, I admit I was rude and they very sweetly humored me) and when I told him they said he was handsome (which he is) he was horrified. I laughed. He was not amused.
