greenstormInternet is working again.
Today, I spent three hours gardening (and getting paid for it) and another couple of hours with mom in the Zodiac wandering around the North Shore. We was 60-100 seals hanging out in the sun on a lumber raft. Seals are very neat creatures, doglike and decidedly *wrong* looking when you see a bunch of them lying around like that.
My rats are grooming each other like crazy. Caramel is getting the brunt of it -- first Sweetie, now Merlyn, has captured him.
The girls are no longer in heat (blessed silence) but are still vocal, and Merlyn has started clicking a lot, possibly in response?
Today was fantastically, ridiculously gorgeous.
I keep thinking of things to say when I'm not at home, and forgetting them when I get home. Tell me how the cellphone post thingy works?
I need to keep my nose out of fiction for awhile. I'm not doing enough real-world stuff, and it shows in the way I'm feeling distant/unbalanced. When I'm spending a lot of time with human beings I can read and that's fine, but when book characters spend more time with me than real people/I know them better than real people then I'm starting to wander off into weirdness again.
I think sex gets better when you have it less often?
Coming down with a bit of a cold, gooky throat and a bit of post-nasal drip. Hopefully I can coddle myself tomorrow and Monday and I'll be all better. Y'think?
After his bath, Merlyn's fur seems to be growing in reasonably well, without the bald spot he's had for so long. I need to keep bathing him regularly.
I also need to buy razors.
I think it's the lack of reliable one-person contact that is the weirdest when I'm in this state (if I say single, Juggler will roll his eyes at me. Do you know, I've been with Juggler for every relationship breakup I've had? I've only been with him two years). That's both checking-in contact (hey, I saw seals today, isn't it beautiful out there?) and physical contact, not necessarily sex (though that's nice) but also casual hugs, hanging around with a foot stretched out to touch them while they read or whatnot, all that.
Ack! My rats are bad rats. Sleep well.
