Late?

.

.

Or early, to bed?  I... can't remember.  It is 4:02, so is late in the day, early if you were just waking.  But, that doesn't mean anything to somehow whose schedule can spin like a plane out of control.  I can't remember when I have been going to bed, or waking, mostly.  I think I woke between 15:00 and 16:30.  Sure of it.  But... that was today.

Yesterday?  The day before?  And... bedtime?  I have no idea.  All I know is that I have hit a roadblock, and must sleep.

I did get a shower in.  Very nice tech.  You... don't think of it as tech.  It is.  It is... nearly miraculous tech.  Tech so recent only your fathers to grandfathers probably had first common access, depending on your age.  I am not absolutely certain my mother had this.  I think they had an outhouse, and bathed in large containers.  Once a week?  Twice at most?  Not a judgment.  

Amazed, really.  The work to bring in water.  They might have had a hydrant in the house?  But to get the water in, and heat enough of it to make the water warm enough, especially in an Iowa winter.  Then, to do that for a family of eleven, at the time?  Ugh.  The things our forefathers, and mothers, went through.  But... they mostly enjoyed their lives.  Probably more than we do.  It does ease the discomfort of the notions, no?

Anyway, I surely enjoyed the shower.  After, while I was sitting out here, Sassy started... meowling.  She definitely does that if I leave the oven on.  Or... some such.  But I haven't had the oven on in days, so I ignored that, for just a bit.  Finally, though, I went to see.  She had caught a mouse!

I have the sense she has been hunting that mouse for a while.  I knew there was a mouse, but couldn't get it in traps or else either.  She finally got it.  Had it laid out for my inspection.  I gave her immediate loves, gentle skritches, itching her scratchy places.  Petting and cooing and cat man love talks.  I can even make a cat blush!  But, she was proud.  And rightly.  So, I gave her a bit extra to eat, right away.  Since she really doesn't like mice, but killing them makes her hungry, I give her food and treats she does like.  

Gaming.  More.  Not... really into it.  Certainly not going to buy the update.  If they have a black as the lead, let them have blacks buy it.  Not my game.  At this point, there isn't room, only choices.  Binary choices... in just about every way.  They are the ones who forced the issue.  Let them eat it.  I'm sure their influencers will go along with it all.  But why are so many of them white?  Gotta fix that, too.  Might as well.

Still, I can sort the game out, up to that point.  But it's mostly a dead game.  Have they really fixed it?  Well, changed it.  Fixed it?  *shrugs*  Still has problems.  Minor, rare, still...  It is what it is.  It's not even the same game, really.  But okay.

Hoping to get another shower in the morning.  Might trim, while I brush my teeth tonight.  Friday?  Right.  In the smaller and larger numbers on the clock, things get strange.  Not sure which day it is or will be.  Confusing, as insomnia creeps in, or is about to.  Sleep, that fixes it.

Another shower, when I wake.  Then... I don't know.  Hopefully something helpful.  See you in the morning.
