Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Bummer on having a room and not a make out buddy for it, meara.

I hate my neighbors. They are only slightly loud but I just get so grated feeling when they stomp up stairs or have people banging on their doors.

I also have a crazy headache and I think my hip is messed up. Really, I might be cranky from that more than the external stuff. I am going to try and stretch and see if my insomniac ass can sleep.

I hope sleep helps with the headache and the hip, Cass.

I'm one of those weird morning people. Not necessarily as early 6 am on a Saturday when I'm not dog sitting, but now that I'm up it's nice to watch the morning gather itself in.

I have been up since 5:30 with rambunctious little boy and bonus fighting cats and ye gads I wish I could go back to bed.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I woke up just before 7 for no apparent reason.

I woke up before 7:00, too!

Except that I had a reason; I'm at work right now.

That's not right.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I woke up before 5:00 for no apparent reason. To go back to an earlier conversation, I am catching up on the internets on the laptop in my bedroom.

I woke to the sound of breaking glass. Thanks, Devi. She's up to her old tricks of knocking things off. Market in a bit.

I woke at 1 to my usual insomnia. Then I woke again to the same at 5. Since 5 is my usual wakeup on school days I figured I'd just get up. Ugh. I hate insomnia.

Man, so much insomnia.

I am eating a slice of warm chili cheddar bread from a local bakery spread with juice sweetened apple butter from an orchard here in Md. NOM. Then I'll go run errands.

There was a time where I wouldn't leave the house without a shower, and god forbid, without taming bedhead. That time is past. I try to at least not have stuff sticking up in weird directions, but...I'm either lazy or have other priorities, take your pick.
