The heat went out at the office today. So I’m working from home. I sit at the dining room table, and the kids politely tidy up the house in exchange for additional computer time. “How many minutes can I earn for giving you a back rub,” asks Alex. “Are there any more chores I can do?” The boys read and take turns using the computer like a coin-op salt lick. The house is immaculate. My to-do list is an endangered species. Ommmm. Parental Controls are my new favorite currency.
