That noise
What's the difference between a schlemiel and a schlimazel (yiddish..)? A schlemiel walks and stubs his toe. A schlimazel, doesn't stub his toe, but some one will drop something on it.
I am both.
Got up early.
The cellphone on vibrate.
Don't want to wake the baby.
She needs to sleep.
I woke her too many times,
Over something stupid.
I tiptoe to the bathroom,
It's sooo cold.
Flushing is noisy,
So ladle water quietly, from the shower.
I do the other toiletries in the kitchen,
Much safer .
I dress but then stub my toe.
Oh the the pain.
I restrain groaning,
And silently wait for the crying to begin,
The hit made a thud.
Biting my lips, but she's still sleeping,
I stealthily make, drink coffee,
More alert, better chances.
I eat, nothing crunchy.
Then when I'm just about to leave,
Some jerk decides to honk.
Now crying...
