Meatloaf and nightmares

[crowdog66]

Later tonight there will be meatloaf. This cheers me up a little in the middle of what has turned out to be a pretty shitty day.

First, I had nightmares last night, the kind of nightmares that cling to your waking mind and follow you all day long -- mostly about friends, betrayal by friends, disappointing friends, et cetera, yadda yadda. On top of the nagging unease that caused, I've been worried about Mina and her eye/nose (although her eye has been clearing up as the day goes on, just as it did yesterday). Third, I need to get my ass in gear on the latest batch of MM, and I can't seem to get my creative spark plugs to fire. Fouth, I feel physically exhausted for no apparent reason. Fifth... nah, four is enough, especially when you're not counting your blessings.

Today's blessings: First, Mina isn't getting any worse. Second, we got a cheque today (not the big French cheque, but enough), so we can take her to see a vet tomorrow afternoon. Third, the vet we're taking Mina to see is one that my mother was quite fond of when she was alive. Fourth, I have work -- never something to be taken for granted in the freelance art world. And fifth, there'll be meatloaf for supper.

Any day that the blessings outweigh the not-blessings has something to be said for it.

And the power going off and on repeatedly through the night did not help matters any.... bleh!

I missed all that; I turned in at 9 pm because I was feeling poorly and slept until 1:30 am, when I got up just long enough to feed the cats and check my email. At that time I noticed that the iMac was off, but figured that George had just set it to turn off automatically after a certain length of time. :-)

o_O Your clock didn't go all wonky?

Nope, we have a battery-operated alarm clock.

Every other clock in the house, though (except for my mother's clock) had to be reset when we got up this morning.

OH! Lucky, I don't. I'm glad I woke up... It went off and on about four to five times while I was getting ready this morning.. Ugh. Will remember to use cell phone back up more often now... lol
