zac + laptop == dilemma

Status Report:
Zac: sleeping soundly
Morgan: ravenous, but has tons of work to do

Option 1 – stay put and work
PRO: In this current body position I can probably squeeze in an hour of work AND have the use of both of my hands (which way more than doubles my one-handed productivity while writing code – I’d say 2-handed typing is about 5.7 times as effective as 1-handed typing).

CON: I may pass out due to low blood sugar at any moment

Option 2 – risk it and get something to eat
PRO: I’ll probably be more productive and remain conscious with a higher blood sugar level

CON: This will almost certainly wake Zac up and I’ll have to revert to one-handed computer programming

I’m looking for creative solutions here. What would you do?

Milo eats his favorite parts of the meal first and saves the worst for last. I do the opposite.

I see a cardboard box and think recycling. Milo sees a cardboard box and sees possibilities.

Milo sometimes pees in bed, could care less, and keeps on sleeping. I can’t go back to sleep after I pee in bed.

I bat righty. Milo bats lefty.

Milo is a Yankee fan of convenience. I am a steadfast Yankee fan. (Milo roots for the Yanks if he wants something from me, and roots for the Red Sox if he wants something from Rachel)

I prefer to eat breakfast in one sitting. Milo prefers to eat 1 bite, play, another bite, play, 2 bites, go see what mom is doing, 1 bite, leave the house for 3 hours, returns and demands to know where his bowl of cereal is…

Milo lives in the moment. I worry about the future and regret the past.

To eat or not to eat
