Last night Child 2 was dragged to the CAP meeting with its siblings. The deed was accomplished like this:
Child 2: 1? Can I read this book that is yours that you are currently reading?
Child 1: No!
Child 2: What about now while you're eating?
Child 1: No! I read while I eat.
Child 2: What about while you're at CAP??
Child 1: ... no. But! If you'll come to CAP with me you can!
Child 2: *thinks* ...okay.
Child 3: *being forced to call their CAP ride to see if there's space in the car* Wait, 2 are you going because you want to, and you're thinking about joining or just so you can read that book?
Child 2: *with great sincerity* Oh! Because I'm thinking about joining! *Child 3 wanders off to make its phone call* Hey 1, can I start reading that book now?
So all three were bundled into a car and whisked away leaving me with an unexpected evening alone. The luxury! The opportunity for decadence! The...
... so naturally I cleaned the kitchen, vacuumed the living room, tidied up my bedside table and went to sleep early.
I'm a maniac.
