I got 5 hours plus a wee bit of snoozing. Still not near enough.
Simon: The decision saved your life. Zoe: Won't happen again, sir. Mal: Good. And thanks. I'm grateful. Zoe: It was my pleasure, sir.

I spent 2:20-4:30 in bed with a 2 year old who wouldn't fall asleep. He would be almost asleep (and me too), then would shift and press his sweaty face into mine. Every 10-15 minutes, for two hours.
The butterfly still completely boggles me. I can't imagine how it works; I can't imagine doing it.

Back in the 70s there was a show called Superstars where athletes from different sports competed against each other
Oh man, hadn't thought of that show in FOREVER.
And I'm definitely

It's totally fun, and once you get it down it's easily the most natural feeling stroke - like you're really working with the water rather than fighting it.

That sounds unfun. I didn't sleep much, either-- I was up far to late chatting with a very old friend on Facebook, and then couldn't sleep, and then spent from about 4 am - 5:30 with a cat butt on my face and hind legs trying to choke me. I can't understand why she won't lay the other way around!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's really interesting to me, because it's not how I imagine it at all!
My "good" news for the day is that my 2pm meeting got moved to 4, so I don't have to skip out of my 10-3 meeting early. The 10-3 meeting (with lunch break) is still not good news.

I'm trying to navigate the schedules and finer points of what middle school is going to entail this year for Nate. I swear, it was much easier when I was in junior high-- this seems like it's convoluted just for the sake of being convoluted.
I think I need more caffeine.

Still...who was the first dude to figure that out, that it's possible to even do?

I'll never be able to do the butterfly -- I can't clear my sinuses fast enough to not choke on water as I'm trying to breathe (even with opening my mouth at the above water moments). It's only strokes that keep your head above water for me, alas.
