Calls, Texts & Badgering

I called Chloe at 6:59 this morning in an effort to wake her up for our scheduled 7 a.m. run. I knew she stayed out late the night prior and waking up on time today would be a struggle.

Several rings. No answer.

At 7:16 a.m., I sent her a text that simply said, "RUN!!!!!" (Ok, I thought to myself, I'll make some coffee).

At 7:32 a.m., no word from Chloe, but coffee is ready!


At 7:35 a.m., as I sat with my cup of coffee and watched The Today Show, I called Chloe again. 

Same deal -- several rings and no answer. 

At 7:39 a.m., I sent her an email with the Subject, RUN!!!, and the text, RUN!!!!!!!!!!!!  

Unfortunately, there comes a point during my weekday mornings when I need to put the badgering of Chloe aside and get ready for work. So at 7:44 a.m., that time arrived. I showered, ate cereal, dried my hair, and got dressed. As I headed out the door at 8:47 a.m., I still heard no word from our aspiring 5K superstar.

At 10:10 a.m., I finally received the following text: 

"Buh I slept till 9:30... I was at the film fest thing too late!"


Sigh. Well, at least she hung with Bobcat Goldthwait.
