Goodness

so
S came home
I was drunk
she put me to bed

I got up later
and she was drunk too
we talked some
cuddled more
went to sleep

I had breakfast with ellen
who helped me sort and clear my thoughts

and came back to take care of S
who was feeling the ill effects
of the bottle of bourbon I drank the night before
[I'm assuming someone has to?]

although in all fairness
consuming a bottle of bourbon
did make me seven minutes late
to meet ellen in the morning
so I can't say it did not affect me at all

anyway

I got S some tea to sooth her stomach
and some gatorade to rehydrate her
made her one of my world reknown omelets
[she had never actually had one before]

I, of course, explained to her
that usually I only make omelets in exchange for
particularly deviant sexual favors
[yes they are that good]
but I kinda liked her so I'd let it slide
[this time]

so yeah
she was feeling better
I was feeling collected
and it was time to talk

and so we did

for quite some time
it was a goodness

and while talk is only valuable in so far as it is followed by action
I am [the good lord be merciful upon my soul] hopeful
and
reassured

then we spent the rest of the day
doing unspeakable things
and greatly enjoying them

we cooked some dinner
took a nice long walk
and relaxed on the couch
before turning in pretty early

it was after all a pretty full and exhausting day

anyway
I'm feeling much better
and I've got work to do
so I'm going to head off and do that

love love
your plural

Nola

so
buffy and others
have been posting about New Orleans
and the insanity that is going on there

and
it seems pretty bad
and it seems pretty embarrassing
but
it also seems that no one is looking on the bright side

...

Nola's gonna be the coolest ghost town in history
just thinking of the fun that could be had

...

I'm thinking apocalyptic paintball

four thousand people
four sides
battle for control of the city

turn out the lights
give each person a fifty rounds of ammo
when you "kill" someone
you take their ammo and send them back to your base
where a ref issues them one of your teams arm bands
another fifty rounds of ammo
and they join your side

create food and water depots
which provide mre's and canteens of water
to the side which controls them

last team standing wins
