I didn't sleep past 6 any day last week (and I really wanted to) so yesterday I basically refused to get up and did go back to sleep until NINE. It was very exciting for me, although I had started getting used to getting stuff done in the early mornings....
My work's illegal, but at least it's honest.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Happy birthday, Vortex!
I've always been a morning person. Unfortunately, that doesn't always translate to falling asleep at a decent hour. I do miss that aspect of antidepressants—those knocked me out for a solid 8.

I can remember being a morning person. I have also been a late night person at times. Sometimes I feel crepuscular. These days I feel like there is no such thing as enough sleep and no time of day is particularly energetic for me. Having a second teenagerhood, perhaps.

I am cognizant that she's basically growing a whole new body without the benefit of dissolving into a goo within a cocoon.
Right now I would be down with dissolving into goo within a cocoon if it meant the new body came with less pain issues and a better back.

A million years ago I read a short story that postulated that menopause and whatever the parallel male thing is are interrupted forms of a transformation like unto dissolving into goo within a cocoon and within the story some environmental change made it possible to complete that change. I think about that a lot. If Intelligent Design were a real thing, something like that would probably happen.

Timelies all!
Happy Birthday Vortex!
Gary has this container of Dark Chocolate Power Mix on his desk, so I helped myself. Dried pineapple, yum. Almond, good. Dark chocolate covered.....coffee bean, bleah.(I didn't know what it was until I crunched down on it. I don't like the taste of coffee at all)

Yeah, and as I recall there was some sort of exoskeleton/armor being grown which also sounds like a pretty good idea.
