The day dawned a little brighter and a little happier. I still don't feel rested but the sun is shining and all of my customers are in a good mood. There are people out jogging and one woman just jogged by with her baby carriage.

Livannalia was great fun last night. I caught up with people I haven't seen in a while and missed and got caught up on the latest gossip. I squealed like a teenage girl when ednoled and kando made a surprise appearance. I probably stayed at the Lodge a bit too late but I don't care. It was great fun being around such wonderful people. Fer real.

Tonight I have to make soup and the promised chocolate chip cookies. I'm going to work on the blanket of doom some more and watch the squirrels in the backyard.

That is all.

Carry on.
