I am, as the French say, le tired.
I’ve been going since 2:45/3:00a.m. And I now just want a shower and a ten hour nap.
But Theodora, you might say, that’s just getting sleep! No, I would respond in this hypothetical conversation. It is not the same. A nap is restful. Just sleep can be an evasive and fickle bitch.
Anyway, I had a blast.
Breakfast with Chelé after getting a lift from J’s Mama Mel. Wandering Five Below with a collapsible Santa Clause figure in tow. And then lunch with DW and a bit of a meander around my old stomping grounds. Even passed the Petco where I adopted Spock!
Then, after a lunch of Caesar salad and French onion soup at an Irish pub off the main road, DW and I grabbed some boba at a local shop.
When DW had to pop off to work, Sparrow swooped in and stole me from boredom/exhaustion. I finally made it to Moreno’s Bakery, where I’ve been trying to get to since I landed! We split a cupcake the size of my palm. It was good and not too sweet.
Now I’m headed to Aunt and Uncle Gator’s place to decompress, decontaminate from all the travel, and then go down for the count.
If I don’t post again tonight, I apologize.
Take your meds, folks.
