I get confused. I remember everything. I remember too much, and... some of it's made up, and... some of it can't be quantified, and... there's secrets.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh! When I got into bed last night, I realized why I was obsessing so much about the boots -- my feet were freezing all evening! I kind of didn't notice.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I can't go to bed with cold feet, because I'll never fall asleep. If my feet are cold I take a bath before going to bed.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I have a heating pad for that very purpose. When my old one stopped working, we got one with a two-hour automatic shutoff. It's awesome.

I put my electric blanket on my bed the other night, and it's great because so far, I've turned it off before I fall asleep and been perfect. It wasn't heating up fast enough last night.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Athletic socks. For some reason I used to try and sleep with slightly chilly feet, and wondered why it never worked. Now I just put on socks when I get home. They won't stay warm on their own, and if the heating pad turned off they'd get cold and wake me up. If a sock falls off, I'll wake up.

New Guy forgot we'd been kicked out of our conference room, so meeting was had standing up in a corner. It is always something. He's still sure we're in the room tomorrow and Friday, but I've checked my mail and we're not. I don't know if I'll remind him.

Three words: Heated. Mattress. Pad.

It may be the best thing I ever bought, in terms of ROI.

I'm looking at all those heating items with lust. And then trying to remember where I live. Moved here for a reason, and it pays off. One blanket does just fine most of the time.

The electric blanket or mattress pad options weren't as good for me, because my husband is a freak.

The mattress pad has dual controls, so I can crank my side up to Flame-Broiled, while weird-ass boyfriend o'mine can literally cool his heels.
