Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I keep having this thing where I wake up all perky at 5 or 5:30 or so. It's kinda freaking me out. I mean, it's not even light out! How can my brain think it's wakey time?

We are no longer samesies.

That is just wrong. Or healthy. Either way, I am having none of it.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

You know how I've been having all kinds of trouble with my sleep cycle lately? Well, my phone has suddenly taken to playing Cowboy Junkies at me unexpectedly. I can't figure out what's doing it and it stops when I pull down the notification menu. And oddly, it's the beginning of Remnin Park, the house show introduction about dicks on the walls graffiti, which could be quite unfortunate if that started at the wrong time.

And anyway, now I'm awake again. Grump.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I am totally with Tim on the midnight project tendencies, but I do try to keep the noise down.

So, in my Hunger Games reading I have a new favorite sentence. "I really can't think about kissing when I've got a rebellion to incite." Hahahahaha!

I got stuck on my street waiting for a dang mobility bus waiting for someone who wasn't home and now I realize I left my lunch at home.

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

He's got the first part down pat. I haven't yet enquired as to whether he regards this as immutable.

From the files of Something I Read Once About Child Development From What I'm Pretty Sure Was A Reputable Source, gender permanence is a concept that sets in between 4-6 years old.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

From the files of Something I Read Once About Child Development From What I'm Pretty Sure Was A Reputable Source, gender permanence is a concept that sets in between 4-6 years old.

I have at home a documentary called A Child's World, Which discusses how and when kids develop concepts such as this, time awareness, differing perspectives, that kind of thing. It's really quite fascinating. I also have this book: [link] It was written by a neurologist, and covers a child's development over the first five years. It's really quite cool.

Because books.

Your cat is making you crazy. I knew it.

hip deep in pie

Compared with uninfected people of the same sex, infected men were more likely to wear rumpled old clothes; infected women tended to be more meticulously attired, many showing up for the study in expensive, designer-brand clothing.

Aha! I am uninfected! They are making me crazy by other means.
