Word to what javachik and le nubian said.
I was exhausted and then started reading, and finished the damn book, and now I've missed my falling-asleep window. Foo. Hope the next one comes soon. It felt good to disappear into a book, though, it was a hectic day with more to come.
Can I just say that Nora and Tom saved my ass, once again? They graciously let me come do an emergency load of laundry at their house on no notice whatsoever, since it was too late to go to my laundromat, and finish my slides there. And even tolerated my exclamations of frustration over formatting, and read over my slides to make sure they didn't totally suck. I think I owe y'all a nice dinner somewhere, Nora.
Have I mentioned that smonster in New Orleans with Nora and Tom warms my heart like homemade hot cocoa? The kind where you heat up the milk, and mix cocoa with sugar, and slowly add the milk... not the instant packets.

Me too. How are you doing, Windsparrow? How is Daniel feeling?
And you know what? If they aren't? Drop 'em. Times like this is when you find out who is worth including in your lfe, and who isn't.
That's the truth, right there.

He is still in a lot of pain. And the pain medications make his speech kind of slurred, so it's hard to hold conversations with him. He's losing time - often cannot keep track of what day it is. And he keeps telling me he is so sick of being stuck there. He said yesterday that the doctors told him they were "optimistic". Neither of us really knows what the hell that means.
I don't even really know how to say how I really feel - the closest thing is exhaustion, bone deep but not on a truly physical level.
Oh Andi. That does sound truly exhausting. I'm still sending out mucho healing vibes to Daniel, and coping and strength and calm ~ma to you.
~ma for everyone who needs it, including but not necessarily limited to Nora and Nora's friends, Stephanie, and Andi and Daniel.
So...I just got a friend request on FB from Gus Raley (hi Gus, if you are lurking). Anyone else?
We're talking about it in Natter. A bunch of us got friend requests from him.
Much love and energy and healing vibes for you and Daniel, Andi. I've been thinking about y'all a lot.
Mmm, cocoa. That's a lovely thing to say, and I totally agree.
So. I got two blocks before realizing that I have another flat. One of my dog park buddies happened to walk by and helped me change it, so that's good. But my check engine light came on, which may mean that the IMA battery has finally sent up a deterioration code. Yay, except that I only have 10 miles left on my warranty.
Anyway, that's fun. I didnt need this today, in our busiest time at work, but it is what it is and I'll deal with it. Just needed to vent for a second. Someone from work is going to pick me up at the dealer.
