Awake for a while now?

.
.
I slept long.  Very long.  Not enough air flow through the house, was choking, I think.  Opened the window a crack, near the sleeping roll.  Helped.  But really needed some sleep.  Rest.  When I woke, I opened another window up there.  I need air.  And, am getting it.  The computer, front, room is cluttered.  Full of boxes again.  That isn't helping.  But, closing up the windows... this house is very tight.  You just have to crack things a bit, to get some fresh air, or you'll choke.  Ugh.

Dreams.  Women.  No sex, just... cuddling?  I think so.  Women can be so... plush.  Even the skinny ones, somehow.  Wonderful dreams.  Clean, comfortable, warm, fuzzy.  Life can be so... wonderful.  Sure, just dreams, but dreams of times not all that long ago.  Like women or not, they are wonderful to snuggle up with, and more.  But... this was just the plush warmth of resting together.

Using the electric blanket, getting fresh air, combined with needing rest and air and warmth probably just... helped me remember.  Well, and fun, funny, conversations.  I can't hate women, even if I don't always like them.  Worth putting up with, in the right situations.  But it's a risky thing, for them, for us.  Still... plush.

Oh, I've been up, browsing, for an hour... hour and an half?  It was 39 when I woke?  The warmest it has been in a while.  It actually felt good?  That is spooky, I'll tell you.  At 18:30, it is down to 32, and dropping.  It is chilly out there now.  Going on cold, as it hits freezing and continues to drop.

Medicine in.  I've been doing well, with that.  The only real problem with medicine, at this point, is when I sleep very long hours, or stay up very long hours, and lose track that way.  I take medicine "morning", and "night", making sure water pills are taken when waking, not when going to sleep.  The rest can be... adjusted as needed or wanted.

I feel better.  I keep feeling better, save when I shut the windows completely, thinking that would make it seem warmer.  No, it... really didn't.  Plus, it... was causing serious problems with getting enough air.  Fixed.  I just need to remember to wear a jacket on top of else, around the house.  This is where a fire burning heater, stove, oven sort of think would be nice.  Just to... take the chill off, burn for a few logs, then let it be cold until needed or wanted again.  I just don't have what it would take to obtain and install one.  Well, and then keep up on soot, ash, and whatever else.

Reminds me, I should get my jacket.  I found a reasonably priced carhart.  Not my favorite brand these days, went woke like the rest.  But... found it at enough of a discount I suspect they weren't making money on it, so bought it.  Off 90%?  Or so.  Checked it out well, to make sure it wasn't somehow terribly flawed.  Probably from sales shrinking due to libshitting the public and the public bud lighting them.  Gotta hope it hurts from corporate to the manufacturing.

Oh, I do have my order ready, for tomorrow.  Not buying everything in the basket, will have to go through and sort.  Some tools, just for the bike.  A garage jack, to lift and work on the bike... if just in the garage.  I have plans for field bike jacks, but... those can wait.  Riding gear.  Nothing fancy, but protective.  

Mostly bike stuff.  Trying to keep it low, though.  Because I also want to get the Mr. Buddy heater set up and working, then begin replacing every fluid and possibly the battery.  And, begin wrenching a few upgrades.  I think I'll hold off on the led turn lights, headlights, and tail lights.  More thinking the footpegs, maybe handlebar risers, a thermo bob, and possibly a better electrical distribution system... with a cig lighter and several usb's.  More minor things, initially.  But a list of things through time, including a center stand.

It's a good bike.  Don't want to try to completely change it.  Just add the right things to it.  Handwarmers, maybe a seat warmer, to stretch how often it can be comfortably, or reasonably, used.  Better tires, in time, for road riding first.  Would like to add top end speed, for highways, but not sure the mods would really work out all that well, and the price in fuel consumption might really be too much of a negative.

But, a few things.  If, mostly, initially, just maintenance and a few maintenance type mods, such as an inline gas filter... and possibly pin upgrade?  Though... even that is a bit complex.  That might be... for another month, or in the summer, if at all.  Lots of things could go wrong with that little project, including killing the carb outright.  Bleh.

Still, dreaming while I plan.  Later.
