This morning's vocabulary lesson

The new school year has begun. As stated previously, our three children are in three different schools, which makes for three different departure times, which makes for an interesting morning. Our daughter, Natalie, has perhaps the biggest transition as the middle school day starts more than an hour earlier than the elementary school day. Which means she needs to get in gear a lot earlier and a lot quicker around the house. Which led to the following exchange this morning.

Idiot Dad: Natalie! Come on. Chop-chop. Shake a leg. Let's get going!
Natalie: I can't find my hairbrush.
Idiot Dad: Come on man, you are already running late. You need a sense of urgency!
Natalie: Sense of urgency? What's THAT?
Idiot Dad: Exactly.

Send her down to Philly - Chip Kelly has a sense of urgency.
