Now I can't remember if the restaurant I used to go to called Xunta is hunta or shunta, because I had it wrong for so long.
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The twins are doing well. They were born prematurely, as twins often are, and have had more than their share of struggles, but at six months they are catching up pretty well. With two preemies and a job, though, it takes a cancelled Friday morning meeting for me to be able to check in at the Phoenix.

More insomnia last night. Had a really bad anxiety attack last night. Contributing to that is the fact that my Internet at home is on the fritz, and I had to spend a big part of last evening on the phone with the cable company. My therapy session is not going to be pretty today.

Because books.
Aw, I'm sorry, Tom.
Rick! It's always good to see your pixels.

Punishingly Intricate
After all the talk of morning routine yesterday I totally slept through ? or failed to snooze my alarm properly. I'm not sure. And ended up oversleeping by about 40 minutes. I hurried and had time to eat and wash/dry my hair AND drop my crazy sparkly heels off at the cobbler's to see if he can stretch the one small one. He claims he can so we'll see.
He was hilarious as always--totally old world and slightly inappropriate. I told him they were my potential wedding shoes and he was very impressed that I'd found love finally at my advanced age (he guessed the range of how old I am which is slightly horrifying to me but whatever...I have a ton of undyed grey in my hair and no makeup).

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Rick, I read that post and had no idea it was you! How would *you* summarise your study?

OMG, the cable company showed up on time, AND it was just an easy fix — they swapped out my cable modem.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
