couch preparation

Yesterday was.....an odd day. My insomnia of the night before made everything a bit surreal and Amythyst stayed home from work sick, which made things feel even stranger. We both spent a good deal of the day sleeping, trying to get back up to speed. Then, last night, we went over to Ketina and Ronelyn's to hang out, listen to some Lennon music and talk. Among other things, more hashing out of when I'll be going to AZ in January happened. It was a really good evening, I thought.

And today--in a few minutes, really--I'm going over there to pick up Ronelyn and then head to our storage unit where we'll rearrange stuff to be ready to store their couch next week. (The couch needs to go out so the tree can go in, you see.) Not really looking forward to moving lots of heavy boxes, but we'll see what we see.

And I still feel kind of out of it. Guess just catching up on some sleep doesn't shake that feeling.....

RIP Robert Sheckley

I am sad. Here's his obiturary from the SFWA site.

Science fiction will be a little less fun without him....
