Ooops!

I feel like a muppet - all stuffing and cotton and big eyes and bits that probably are going to detach.

I feel like Puppet!Angel.

HELP!

Last night I went home and CRASH, fell asleep by 5:30 and slept until about 8:15ish. Slept so hard I don't even remember drowsing or waking up or anything. And then was in bed proper by around 11:30 and still slept past the pushing of my alarm until 7:30.

Except for the bit where at 5am I woke up all stuffy and needing cold medicine. And longtime readers of my LJ will remember that swmbo does not do WELL with cold medicine and there's only a few kinds I can take without being rendered unconscious for days at a time. Including the alka-seltzery times, those are safe. Ish.

Until you're trying to assemble it at 5:00 am so you can go back to sleep for another hour and the package is really tough to open and you give in and tear it with your teeth only it rips too hard and you see one of the seltzer tablets arcing up, up, up into the air and then falling with a plop into the sink half full of water.

Where it then starts fizzing up a storm.

And then, at 5:00 am, filled with wool, you have to make a decision on if you have a single tablet cold-relief drink or if you open a second packet and have a single one waiting around for later.

I went with option B. B for Brilliant.

Now I have coffee and weariness and I am feeling very ploddy. I am pretty sure much of today will be spent zoning out and staring into space. BUT! I did read an awesome Heroes fic yesterday and I quite recommend Ordinary Boy by saestina - it's all from Lyle's PoV in an alternate future where Claire and Lyle have to go live with the Petrelli's and it's awesome.

Mmm, coffee. You are warm and comforting and like a hug to my soul. I keep you.

I would hug you all but - still in quarantine!
