But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Shir, I haven't asked in the least how you're doing! What's up with school, family, and so on?

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I understand, Theodosia. The whole thing must be so tiring. I hope for as stressless as possible for you.

I'm fine. Finished with my last test for the semester (I hope) about two hours ago. Hence here.

And actually, going back to study now. Semester started 2 weeks ago, and I still had exams, so now I need to catch up.

Oooh, damn, it's not enough that you're finishing up exams, but you have to be starting classes at the same time? Good thing I'm not in school any more!

Oh wait. But at least it's only the one class....

Thanks, Theo. And good luck.

Our wings are not tired.

I hope you have fallen asleep, Theo. It would likely be best for all parties if you can make the drive today. You won't be any good to anyone, including your mom, if you deplete all your energy resources.

Shir! Welcome back.

'Fraid not -- I haven't seen any Facebook or LJ activity either. It may be time for somebody in her vicinity to make contact in a respectful way....

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Of all the times for me to actually go to bed at a reasonable hour, it would be when you return to us, Shir. I'm glad you survived exams.

At least my reason for going to bed early was that I have a brand new mattress to try out. In four decades of life, this is the first time I've ever had a new one. But back and shoulder pain were getting to me, so it was definitely time. When I went to the mattress store, the guy asked me whether I liked firm or soft, and I told him, "I have no idea, I've never had a new mattress, so I don't know what new firm or soft feels like." So he had me try them all out. Firm? Was too firm. Medium felt good. Soft felt... like I couldn't move. So I went for medium. Also, it being a Serta, I got a cute little stuffed sheep toy as a bonus. I gave that to the cats.

Hooray for Shir finishing tests!
