zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzmmmmmmmmmmmm

we (in the royal sense) are in decidely better mood today.

yesterday improved greatly after a much needed nap, which i got to have not long after i posted here, in common grounds no less. it really is a home from home. with ricky working away on his laptop and keeping an eye on the time so i wouldn't fall into too deep a sleep (i recommend everyone nominates themselves a snooze guardian, it makes falling asleep in public a far less precarious endeavour, but then maybe i just have some mega level trust issues), i curled up on the sofa like a cat and had the kind of nap you usually only get to have on a sunday afternoon. with soft familiar voices off in the distance floating just on the edge of my consciousness i was able to relax in the knowledge that no harm would befall me while i rested. that i was taken care of. bliss. by the time i was woken from slumber i was practically purring. totally recharged the batteries.
these are the moments in life that these days often mean the most to me. quiet little interludes where one gets to feel safe for a while and not worry about what comes next. to feel completely care free. which puts me in mind of what it means to be bubble wrapped: to have the tender security of friends around you who you know will protect you when you need to power down for a while and stop defending yourself against this world.

so mcquillan, your hired. thanks chum. x
