Zombies aren't undead.
They're the parents of sleepless infants.
I saw every single hour of the clock from midnight onwards. Most of the time, it took a few minutes of the baby talking to herself before I got up to see what was going on. At 4:15, I decided to try to buy myself a few hours of sleep with some infant tylenol, since Elizabeth doesn't have school this morning and if it was successful, we might all be able to sleep until eight o'clock. No such luck - she was awake again at 4:45 and at 6-something. I got up to her at 6:35, to find a very, very full diaper and a very, very smiley, wide-eyed boo. I brought her downstairs to change her and she's sitting on my lap, pulling at the buttons on my pyjama shirt with one hand while investigating the snaps on her sleeper with the other. Did I mention she's a really smart kid?
I'm going to call Oma in half an hour and beg her to come over for a couple of hours. As of now, I can no longer cope. Several days of sleeplessness are catching up with me.

If you can still take orders let me know, some co-workers are very interested. But that will mean that you will have to type out names and prices, unless there is a website...
