Scene: Early morning. Still dark. One man sitting in his living room, sipping coffee and saying his morning prayers, with two dogs curled up on the couch next to him.
Phone makes text message noise. Man checks his phone. It's from his boss.
*Boss's Text* Did you get my text last night?
Man checks his phone to ensure he didn't miss a text message. There's nothing there. He texts back "Negative".
*Boss's Text* Going to (military base) for training event. 0900. Need you to be there.
Man replies "Understood". This commences a flurry of activity, as said (military base) is an hour and a half away from the man's home. Man showers, eats a hasty breakfast, and hauls ass out the door.
Man returns home very late.
So that's why I don't have much today. Sorry.
