Heh, totally.

Steph, you're totally right, it's face to face I can't do. And some people take that personnally for some reason...

But man - I'm a hot sleeper. I don't like having my feet under the covers, I don't want to be touching other than peripherally (though back to back I kind of like) - but it's a heat thing, it's not avoiding intimacy or some shit. In so many ways, I'm such a (stereotypically idea of a) guy.

Must run. Got home late because I went to a wine tasting with my boss - fun. But now the dog is all "where have you been?? Play with me!"

Which is fine, except.... She really wants us to play with Nasty Gross Ball. Which I'm sure in LucyWorld is actually Delicious Tasty Ball, but that doesn't make it any better for me.

(I have got to stop letting her pick things up off the street.)

One of the first things we discovered as a couple was that we had to have separate blankets and sheets. Again with the heat thing. His body temperature fluctuates a great deal what with the drugs and all, and when I'm sleeping without covers, he's under two blankets.

I don't like face to face snuggling either, and we do tend to not snuggle less in the summer months than in the winter.

Edit because more is not less.

face to face doesnt work to well - usually we are back to front - and since we are both about the same size it works either way.

DH said something about have a list of chores that need to get done on a list so he could just glance and see what needs to be done.

One list of chores sent - I have already thought of one thing left off.

sending the ma~~ to AmyLiz's SIL

and an article about my town that is intersting

If I could convince DH to do the separate beds thing - that would rock. I'm Tappy and Brenda with the not liking the face to face sleeping. I love snuggling, but when it is sleep time, I need my space. I want the blankets but I want to be able to stick my feet out from under the covers when I get too hot. DH snores like heck and won't get checked for sleep apnea, so I have to fall asleep before he does, or there is no sleeping for me.

~ma~ to AmyLiz's SIL. I hope it's nothing serious, but in any case that they figure it out quickly.

IOmememeN, I had a couple of medical tests last week that were no big deal, no stress. Whenever I have tests at this doctor's office, they send me a postcard in the mail saying that everything is ok. So, this afternoon, I had a message on voice mail from my doctor's nurse saying to call her to discuss the results. While I didn't expect negative results, the possibilities included keeling over with a heart attack and cancer, so I kind of flipped out when I got a call instead of a post card. I called in. Everything's fine and my lipids, which were fine, are now better. I'm very pleased, but let me tell you, that heart attack thing almost happened anyway!

I'm now off to stretch my legs to hopefully ward off cramps this evening. And tomorrow, temps are only supposed to reach the low 70s (whoot!). I'm almost happy with the thought of rain on Thursday.

(waves sleepily at the Bitches)

Mal decided he was opposed to me sleeping last night...in pretty much the same way he is opposed to me walking around the house or using my hands for something other than holding him. I think I'll be napping when he does today.

All your gronk are belong to me.

Hi Raq! All my gronk is apparently yours, but I suspect I'll need some back in about 8 hours.

Did I tell you guys about the time there were ants in my Pasta Roni? That was fun.

Did you find them before or after you took a bite? Because if it's before, I can top that story...

...dude, your story may have involved the taste of formic acid, but it didn't involve half a cockroach, so I can top it.

shudders.

Now I want to make a list. I'm thinking that it would include Hugh Jackman, Eliza Dushku, Sean Maher, Nathan Fillion, Lena Olin, Jamie Bamber, Nigella Lawson...actually, this could take a while. I'll be in my bunk.
