Sleep or Beer?
I was trying to sleep in this morning. Danny called me and reminded me that it was my turn to buy beer. He’s right of course but I wish he hadn’t called so early to talk about it. He suggested a very cheap beer called Rolling Rock. But I’m buying so I’m going to get…

Sleep as Self-care
The way I handle stress and pain is to sleep it off. Sometimes that’s four hours. Sometimes that’s twenty hours. The world knocks me down, and I stay down until I’m feeling a little more awesome.

Notable Events (Follow-Up)
I went to sleep. That’s not notable. Help get my son to his day program. Also Unnotable. Played some mobile games. Typical. I haven’t had my coffee yet. The horror. I watched the cat play with a live mouse. That’s a little out of the ordinary, Let me know if you think any of that…
