Date with Yourself?

greenstormYou know all that 'make a date with yourself, it makes you feel better' stuff? Well, sometimes, it does. Like, when you really, really want to curl up with your MUSH, your pre-teen fantasy series reread, your music, and your rats. When you want that and you do it, it's good.
I'm rereading the Sparhawk series (it's two series, both with fancy names). This is, in a very real way, revisiting my family. I spent more time with David Eddings' characters from about grade three to grad then I did with anyone. From age fifteen onwards, Kynnin rivalled that, but in those formative years there is no challenge. A client of mine asked me if I wanted the books (she's moving) so I gacked them.
And, you know? It's important. However I got saddled with this weird, not-reactive family that traverses a set plotline, I need to go back to it once in awhile. I've been spending a ton of time with my 'real' family, brother and mom, but that isn't all of it. I mean, it helps that I saw Kynnin for a bit today and had the below-posted epiphany (it feels good to talk to myself like that) but the book really helps.
Sunshine prolly does too, as does snacking constantly. So many mood-factors involved. I'd love to be a guy just for comparison.
It's good weather, up 28-30 degrees celsius, but I'm learning that's bad weather to be actually working in. I used to think I loved heat, but I just love being lazy in heat. I prefer physically working in cool.
Prrrt. Gack. Mrble. So there.
