And I slept long.

And I slept hard.

I got up a coupla times to pee, but went right back to sleep.

And I was still reluctant to get up at 05:30 when the alarm went off.

And I realized that I hadn't been able to sleep my fill for more than a month...

And I'm really looking forward to this weekend... for more reasons than one.

Anyway, I got up on time, and Karen had to take me to work.... she hadn't been able to get ahold of Mom yesterday to get the stuff out of the truck, and Karen had places to go today....

And it wasn't a bad day at work. I was the runner today, and that entailed lots of running, as usual.

But Karen wasn't able to pick me up until 16:30 or so.

And poor Karen has suffered a relapse of the shingles, dammit. Damn, I hate to see her suffer and know that there's nothing that I can do about it. Reminds me of the time when I had babies who had colds... they were miserable, and the only thing that you could do with them was hold them and cry with them. I remember doing a lot of crying in those days.

She is talking pain pills, of course, but she's also got a cold that's complicating things. What do you take for a cold when you're on the strongest pain medication available?

Anyway, I got the truck unloaded at Mom's tonight, and there are still four big boxes to take over for her... and I've got two that I need to find a place for. 38-gallon jobs, they are.

Mom is doing very well, she is chipper and cheery and a vast pleasure to be around. I think that she really likes where she is, and I am so happy for her!

I have joined an on-line group, HOSII(Hearts of Space) which is composed of people who like... trance stuff. Which I dearly love. And these people... are simply incredible! I have never been in a group that is so... what? Responsive? Feeling? I don't know what it is, but I do think that people who like trance are a people apart... which is pretty much what I am.

Apart... interesting. Aspbergers syndrome again rears it's beautiful head, heh.

And then again, it might just be the whisky.

Nah... whisky doesn't promote true friendship, but it does help it along....

And it's late, and I need... sleep. As I always do.

I look forward to the day when I can say that I've had enough sleep.

On the other hand, I really wish that I didn't *need* ay sleep at all... in a perfect world.

If I didn't need to sleep, I could add about 60 years to my sentient life... Man, I want that sixty years, I could do a lot of music....
