Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ok, for values of sleeping in that mean somewhere around five. SO`s housework morning alarm went off. He slept through it. I did not. So I just now woke him up to see if it was important, but no. Anyway, I stoked the fire and it flared right back up. I love this rhythm. Kettle is on the stove. Dog is fed. We`ll do stovetop oatmeal this morning for breakfast. My internet access should renew shortly Life is pretty good, considering.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I slept in! Didn't wake up until 6:30!

Very exciting. Thank you, ambien.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I was up from 3:40 - 5:something. mac had gone to sleep on my floor, butt-naked. Since he wets, I woke him up and took him to the bathroom and got him in nightpants and into his bed.

Last night he had refused to go to bed when I was going, so 3:40 was actually my third time being awake after going to bed. He is SO doing a chore today to make-up for waking me up after promising not to.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Hooray for sleeping in! Edit: msbelle, sorry to hear about the interrupted night's sleep.

I'm being a slug. Normally I'm up and about by 7 or so, but it's 9:20 and I'm taking my sweet time getting going. All I really need to do today is go to the grocery store and go to the gym.

Speaking of the gym, I am proud to report that I can now do 2 sets of 12 deadlifts at 95 pounds, or 2 sets of 6 at 115.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Wow, Anne! That's impressive.

Yay for the Rangers, msbelle! Boo for the waking.

I decided I wasn't doing anything anyway, so I might as well do my nails, but now they are just about dry, so it's almost time to actually do something with my day.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Nice zombie manicure, Teppy.

It was really, really easy. I'm excessively pleased with it.

Speaking of the gym, I am proud to report that I can now do 2 sets of 12 deadlifts at 95 pounds, or 2 sets of 6 at 115.

That is awesome, Anne! I've read through most of that book, and I need to actually start doing the program. Do you lift twice a week, or 3 times?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I picked up my small camera, and then I put it down to find the doohickey. Finally! I found the doohickey. Where is the camera?

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

I fell back to sleep after about half an hour, and then I slept in!
