After a mere ninety minutes, the baby is finally down for her nap. This is my chance to get some work done while the house is quiet. I should check my to-do list:
折腾了整整九十分钟，宝宝终于睡着了。趁家里安静，我得抓紧干点活。先看看待办清单：
Or, anyway, that’s what I would do, if she slept for thirty minutes. But at around minute eighteen, I hear her wails through the monitor. Tomorrow, I’ll definitely get to the laundry. And Monday, I’ll do the spy-ring thing. ♦
当然，前提是她能睡满三十分钟。但大概到第十八分钟，监视器里就传来她的哭声。明天，我一定把衣服洗了。至于那个间谍团伙的事，周一再说吧。 ♦
