deadlightsgirl | what do we do when sinuses trump sleep?

Why, we blog, of course. If you envision Happy Bunny's axe going right into his sinuses, that will give you an idea of what I woke up to, possibly because I was out at a show last night, skipped the neti pot, and/or Gracie didn't fall asleep til after 11, and that was mostly due to Annette's good graces. I can't do the Gracie-playing-with-my-hair thing anymore. She's gotten better about it, thank god, but I have like no fuse with that anymore, especially if I am sleeping (or trying to). But yeah, woke up to Gracie squawking at 5:30 along with sinus agony, so had to quick do the neti pot and Excedrin, and am now in pain and up. This happened a few days ago, and I just stayed up, showered, went to breakfast, then hit up my brother-in-law for some real coffee ("help me, Coffee Don Kenobi, you're my only hope"), and this will be the procedure I follow today.

If you have access to the musical A Year With Frog And Toad, see it -- especially if you can see it performed by 12-year-olds. Insanely cute.
