... and that makes my weekend.

hopefully the smut will cheer you

Thanks! I is also sore. It's been months since the last time I didn't have something aching, but it's been worth it

I think we'll both find our accomplishments soon.

Thank you.

And thanks for being around. Without the people I enjoy, I'd be a much darker Grayness, indeed.

I and my team mate solved a problem today that even the best and brightest at the company had taken repeated shots at with no results. And it worked out today that next Thursday will be his last day, not today. I'm going to miss him, so that was a happy thing, indeed.

I think we may have another minor miracle or two to work, between us, before he's gone, too.

As I've said before, the prospect of a set from you... well, this gives me much to which to look forward. Just the thought of it is definitely something to make my heart beat a bit faster, and make me smile.

Come what may, though, I'm glad you're around.

Cats *are* great, aren't they? And it's even nicer to have another human with whom to share them.

I'm glad your day is ending well... and I hope your tomorrow carries on in the same note.

Aww, I'm sorry

I find that slow, deep, rhythmic breaths, while seated in a comfortable position with my eyes closed, does wonders for helping me cope with anxiety.

Many, many good thoughts, sent retroactively. After all, since I don't know the outcome, it wouldn't create a paradox from my point of view if the past was altered, a bit.

For someone who was up and out do early, you're up rather late.
...but then, so am I.

In my case it's sheer refusal to let go of the day before.. I just guess before I'm ready. And I'm not yet, quite.

Those of us with a only vaguely regular sleep cycle sometimes have a bit less discipline in the matter- which is why I've been having so many 2 and 3 AM starts lately. Mornings usually hold more attraction anyhow... I can have tea and not worry about winding up having missed an entire night of sleep. As it is tonight, I'm courting danger with just the one cup.

Your evening sounds good. This makes me glad.

Now I need to find a copy. I only have three Beach Boys albums on my iPod anyway, and that's not nearly enough!

Anxiety tends to make one long for such things.

But even though I feel unusually content right now, most of those things sound pretty good

You and he both have my very best thoughts. Much, much good luck is wished.

Aww, hon, I wish you weren't having such a hard time with this.

Just try and keep things in perspective. You're marrying a man you love, and if you can do that with family and a few close friends around, nothing else really matters.

In no particular order-

Squid always fascinated me, growing up. They seemed the closest the real world ever got to monsters or aliens. Just how real the real world is has always disappointed me.

Actually, I have a sneaking admiration for those who adhere to Miss Post, simply because it's a talent that is is nowhere within my manifest of talents. Manners, I can do- etiquette remains one of the rare arrays of trivia that doesn't stick to the inside of my head somewhere. It's always struck me as an aspect of order, and given chaos' reign in this world, that's something worth preserving.

There's always some brilliance about you.

I've started reading Midsummer.

You may want to put some sunglasses on
