FIELD NOTE — Wellington, 38°S, 30 January 2026 Subject: Domestic convergence event, single dwelling, 0630–1930h Observed: five distinct species of adult obligation moving through shared corridors without collision— carpet installers (Homo faber) establishing territory 0800h, cleaner (H. domesticus) following close behind, GP visit (H. fragilis) slotted between client calls (H. economicus), and beneath all of it, threading between ankles, the child (H. ludens), who does not recognise the choreography because it was built around her. Note: the tracking device failed at midday. The body continued without documentation. Calories were spent. Steps were taken. No record. No proof. The day existed anyway. At 1925h, field conditions shifted. The sky cleared. A small voice said Daddy's floating. The researcher was unable to determine whether this referred to the father's arrival, his distraction, or a literal observation about the way a tall person looks when seen from very close to the ground. Recommendation: further study. Bring no instruments. Sit on the floor.
