Is it okay to blame dysfunctional family members for tardiness?
Probably not. I'm currently writing this at 8:50AM, with an appointment with my chiropractor/cousin at 9. Yes. I have ten minutes to fly from southern SF to downtown SF.
I'd set my alarm clock for 7AM. On both my computer (because bass frequency really wakes me up) and my cellphone. My biological clock woke me up at 6AM. Laid there awake for a bit, then I gave Cherry a call, who chatted with me for a good half hour before my alarm went off. Thank god for girls like Cherry, who are sweet no matter what, and can be entertaining at all hours of the day. She's one of my friends from LA. I'll have to pay her a visit soon.
Anyhow, they're finally ready. Be back in a bit.
