They'll call us on Monday and ask how we'll vote on something on Wednesday or which way we're leaning. They keep picking at you to take a position before you're ready.

We're going to meet another mom from Pier for lunch on Monday, and on Wednesday we're going to meet my cousin and her five kids for lunch and maybe go to the park.

We'll see how he goes on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, but he's on track to be on the bench.

Apparently, he went missing on Monday, but the authorities found out about it Wednesday, so we, of course, want to question mom about some of those things. It makes it a little difficult because she's in Florida and we're here.

I am gratified for the support of my colleagues. I look forward to the vote on Wednesday and to working with them to improve the lives of all New Yorkers.

My concern is how we fit it in. Those minutes have to come from somewhere and that means we either take it away from instruction programs or lengthen the school day. I prefer not to do it, but that doesn't seem to make much difference.
