This is especially difficult when you understand that she is a senior in high school, edits her yearbook and holds down a job at a law firm. I see Lauren awake, on average, 3 hours a day...and of those hours not a single one is in daylight! Oh the limits we place on ourselves.................. By the way, I'm a woman.
