Eerie when I have to come home and curl up on the couch.

Mmm.... gamers.

Votania's still not sure what she's going to be doing for the 31st. Who knows.

My costume for Game Night: skyclad.

Whee!

Silver dragon druid guy called again. He was making plans to stop in to see Votania. She's really too tired, and told me the second time he called to say she was asleep. Now she is asleep.

I shall be soon.

Marx noted that Votania'd been borrowing from his energy; likely from me too. Don't mind. Got it to spare, now. This isn't like that uncontrolled drain into Darkside that made me deathly ill in late April 2001.

Re-arranged kitchen. The energy in there flows better now. We can dance around each other more easily. It's good. It's very good.

Have sore throat. Been having for the last few days. Finally got cough drops from Votania. She hates the cherry flavored ones that she got a while ago; I am in blissful appreciation. Finally put drops in right ear. Yay. Reminded Marx and Votania to ask me when under stress how my ears are doing, as well as if I've eaten lately.

Gamers!

Votania and Marx are plotting a Tunnels & Trolls game. I got to help with the calculation of stats.

Nephew wasn't particularly thrilled about going to bed when Mommy and Uncle Marx were not going to bed yet. I tucked him in and told him the story of how Raven put the stars and moon and sun in the sky, and made his feathers all black.

I've been quoting Bujold randomly.

Life around the household has returned to peacefulness. Votania's still exhausted easily, and takes naps; I've informed her that drawing energy from me is all right, just leave me enough to function with.

We will be re-arranging the living room, and making the high counter more accessible, then lining up the appliances there. I have collected us a lot of kitchen equipment. Next on my list for buying kitchen treats will be the steak-spiker, a deadly-looking implement similar to a potato-masher, but instead of a round thing with holes, the round part has long pointy spikes, like fat nails, which are pounded into the steak to completely make it submit and tenderize. Votania's favorite utensil.

I see Darkside tomorrow morning. I shall have to help him work on Selena Garrett's backstory.

Am working on practicing how to bite.

votania and I have discovered that we can compare notes, thus embarrassing anyone who may happen to know us in common.
