A curious thing happened the other day; I was writing my next blog post and something small landed on the couch next to me: a 1 cm convex rubber disk. I looked around for a possible source, and saw that it had sprung from the on-off button of the flashlight hanging on the wall.
` What are the chances of that happening? I couldn't help but think of last Halloween, when Matt was sitting on the couch at the same time someone decided to hurl a rock through the picture window. Except without the $800 worth of broken glass. (I had slept through it, having been exhausted from CSI Con, and then going on a long walk in the rain afterwards.)
Since my last post, Matt and I have been seeing otters at Alki beach, in addition to the blue herons we usually scare away on our evening walks. This last time, I heard a squeaking noise and saw one otter swimming along the shore, calling to the other. I called back, it looked up at me, and continued on its way. After that, I pulled out the camera and got some video of it squeaking, which I'll have to put on YouTube.
As for my health, it was down for a few days, but I'm now mostly-better, including the cold. My body is getting stronger, and I'm better able to hold myself upright so that I can type at the computer. I even have found a solution to keep myself from falling over at the piano, and am planning on briefly demonstrating that in a video.
` Because I've been so under the weather, my ability to sleep is not the greatest, thus affecting my memory. Sometimes, I come back to whatever I'm doing and am surprised to find I've done as much as I have.
` Once, I kicked myself for not spending the evening writing, when I remembered the reason was that we'd had some people over for a potluck!
As for my next post/article, it's coming along despite my body's attempts to drag my brain down into the abyss of incoherence.
