I gave blood today before work (helpful hint: don't donate blood first thing in the morning. It's apparently the one time i'm not adequately hydrated) and removed all the compression/adhesion tape a few minutes ago. Mal is now sitting on my lap compulsively licking the area where the tape was. But only when i'm looking at buffistas, if i switch over to a different browser tab he stops. I'm pretty sure he's trying to send felines support to all the Buffistas having a crummy day. So purrs and licks from my little black cat to ya'll.

Aw, Mal.

Jordan's been super-cuddly all day. All he wants to do is spoon. He follows me around until I lie down on the couch and make space for him next to me. To the point where I'd like to stop being touched or followed by a cat for a bit.

I don't remember any dreams tonight, but I woke up tense. I guess that's an improvement.

Aw, Mal.

Aw, Buffistacats.

I had the great fortune to hang out with the beautiful and awesome Vortex this evening

Envy!

Huzzah! I had the great fortune to hang out with the beautiful and awesome Vortex this evening,

That is a great evening. For both of you.

Sweet, Mal.

I am back at work today. I feel really distracted and totally worn out, but I think keeping busy here will be better for me than being at home.

((ChiKat)))

Whee for Nora and Vortex hanging together!

I had dreams that were odd, but not traumatic, so we'll call that a win.

Whee for Nora and Vortex hanging together!

Seconded.

Yay for F2F Nora and Vortex.

{{ChiKat}} It is hard to try and act normal.

Today is made of win. I always love my birthday. (except my 21st which sucked) Lots of wishes from my loved ones. Found presents on my desk this morning. And I am anxious as all get out to take my kayak around the canals and intracoastal. I went to the chiro this morning to help banish some arm pain because I need that arm to paddle.

I also discovered while practicing in the pool that I am swimming to the nearest ladder if I tip over because I can neither get on it in water over my head or flip it over. It is an ocean level kayak, (a fishing one actually) so it doesn't tip easily. It just was something I needed to test.

{{Maria}} Holding you in my heart.

Happy Birthday, Laura!!!

{{{{Maria}}}} I know the days after the funeral when everyone else's life seems to go back to normal are often the hardest. We're still here for you, whatever you need.

So, real estate agent for the first house e-mailed my agent and went on about how disappointed her sellers are and if they essentially do everything on our original list, would we still be interested. "No, sorry they already have an offer accepted on another house." I wish I could have seen her face.

I love the smell of schadenfreude in the morning.

Sucks to be them.
