The literary dimensions of toenail clippings

Almost 5 hours in bed and at least another hour nodding off while watching videos. Doing Twitter at 3 am is BARELY forgiveable and in this case only because I came across the wonderful work of a Kazakh historian about the end of nuclear testing and inherited nuclear weapons in Kazakhstan. GO CIVIL SOCIETY. Sorry the current government is so... but awesome work in the past. And the other thing: yesterday i forgot my most important accomplishment of the day: I got the gnarly weird toenail on the little toe of my right foot trimmed. Relaxed body, enough light even though that is hardly the point if I can't see the angle anyway, and my kickass toenail scissors all lined up. The chunk I clipped off is the size of a piece of gravel. Probably the world thinks it can live without further literary explorations of the topic, but maybe.  Now to the rest of the inbox. Happy Monday. I already want a nap.

Chase dreams?

4+ hours of sleep.  Chase dreams before waking up once and then AGAIN when I fell back asleep. Somehow perhaps linked with late night viewing amusement: WALEG House transportation committee commute trip reduction and other transportation issues. One of those great moments when "Right Sharing of World resources" goes straight to WA transportation tax and housing policy. 

Tina tuba tuna, not Wordie just possible dinner autocorrected

About 6 hours of sleep. More would have been good but I aspired to more chores than I got done. Instead I decided to procrastinate zooming with one of my blind zoom channels. They were glad to see me and I was glad for people I met. I got hair washed and trash taken out. Dishwashing STILL needs to happen. And despite initial thoughts of tuna, dinner turned out to be sardines with mustard on toast and a powdered milk mocha, maybe not the best idea in the evening, but live dangerously and Zoom with some more blind people, some of whom were snowed in in MA 

Feng Shui the new office?

Somewhere around 6 hours of sleep.  Not quite sure why, aside from taking a shower, it was not possible to do much else before setting out on the great eye doctor expedition. Eyes are basically fine but young doc following remembers the weird eczema I get every year this time of year. Somehow it matters a lot even though it's not obvious what to do about it. Eye doctor has new office--hidden from street in part of a parking garage. Once I got good directions I found it fine, more or less. Decor is completely different which isn't necessarily terrible. Trying to decide if a touch of feng shui would help.

Giddy from sunshine and squash salad with possible digression to Norman St

somewhere close to 5 hours of sleep in bed after a couple in the chair. Eating late at night is such a mixed idea. Also closing the blinds DOES make better sleep maybe because instead of starlight there are bright street lights. The squash salad was part of a trip to the coffee shop when everyone else due at an in-person meeting was going to be late. I recommend buy again if I have a chance, especially since I didn't fine the yam and black bean burritos I sometimes get.  As for Norman st, partly not so secret quest for world domination in the form of safe continuous travel networks for all modes of transportation, faith communities good not only for families willing to drive a long way to be together but also for people who walk or bike.. As for why besides bus stops and changing neighbors Norman St comes to mind.... And HALLELUJAH it's still light at 5 pm

All that trouble just to SIGN MY NAME

Almost 6 hours of sleep. Not counting dozing in the chair while getting my last video fix.     Another sleeping cat pic The world is entitled to a blog post about the signing my name thing. Stay tuned. 

Coleslaw

almost 6 hours of sleep! The CPAP stayed on all night--after I figured out where I put the mask after I cleaned it. Need sleep much? My chest muscles feel a little like there is a workout happening. Note to self. Remember to tell sleep doctor at appointment in February. I still owe the world a blog post about why I wish Taco Time would just freaking use the ingredients they have and sell coleslaw. Today though, go full out for nutritionally appalling
