Mornings

8:30am: I stride across the living room in my silk negligée(!), holding my furry cowprint dressing gown over my head like a sail, singing "it's time to go to school now" to the Muppet Show theme tune.
Claudia sings back "then why aren't you dressed?"
I stop and stare at her. "Can't I go like this?" I enquire.
She looks at me for a long moment, trying to decide where to go with this. She knows that the wrong thing might actually make me take her as I am.
In the end she goes for "Do you want to go like that?" in a very grown up tone.
I laugh and go into my bedroom.
Well played, Cláudia, well played.
