I just slept for twelve hours, and finally I actually feel kind of good again. A little further confirmation, as though I needed it, that sleep has been terrible ( Read more... )

Looks like today is the fourth of the lunar month as well as a Wednesday!* Hermes has a scheduled ritual day (in my new trial routine, he is the only one who does) at the full moon (it was either that or the sixteenth (four times four, you know) which is only the next day, both of which are enough distance away from my other set date that is ( Read more... )

Not that I'm fit to go run a marathon now or anything, still ( Read more... )

The wake will be held on Tuesday and the funeral Wednesday, on Friday I will be back in Baltimore and back to my normal level of online activity. :-)
