Problem: I thought I would n't ever have to deal the damn thing ever again . I wish I had hair that washed itself , and if I did n't have to take showers , that would save heaps of time , too . I wish I could fly to school . I wish it was n't so damn cold anymore so waking up early in the morning would n't be such a miserable experience .

Why is the narrator sometimes late for school ?

A: They are getting ready .

Problem: ~I've been so busy at work ever since vacation ended that in the evenings I ' ve just sort of collapsed and done nothing . Which is alright in the moment , but eventually makes me feel like a slug . So the last few days I ' ve been trying to do more non - sluggish things .~ Saturday night the Kid and I baked 8 dozen cookies-- four dozen orange chocolate chip and four dozen oatmeal raisin chocolate chick -- for Sunday 's ministry fair . Of course we sampled some and they were tres delicious !

What will happen Sunday morning ?

A: They will bring the cookies to the fair

Problem: Get back in the car , crank the engine ... nothing . I called Connie to ask her to bring jumper cables . Aaron ended up coming since he had tools and could fix something on the fly if necessary .

Why did they call Connie ?

A:
Their car had broken down .
