night terror 2

i don't know how to process what we've just been through, it's either a night terror or a parasite, it's the same story as tuesday night. we tried a bunch of things, eventually i laid him on his back, threw a duvet over him and held it tight like it was a swaddling blanket, and it seemed to do the trick. i'm really scared that this is going to become a thing, he's a smart and brave little boy and i'm scared this might bleed through to when he's awake.

god damn.

friday was a long day to finish off a short week, i worked hard but left the office feeling unsatisfied. mr smear wasn't well enough to go the temple, he's still not well enough to go outside so he and gd spent the entire day indoors. it was actually a really nice day, i know because i had to drop off a sample at the hospital (we thought his tummy troubles were going away, but they're pretty constant), and then take my mom (who's also sick) shopping.

the podcast garden story has not progressed - those bastards still haven't responded to me and i don't know when i'll hear from paypal - but i have spent the day figuring out how to operate my podcast myself and i'm pretty satisfied with how it's turned out. i don't know how people who aren't software developers deal with the shitty options available to them, i think i'm going to have to find some time to make my solution public.

gd and i were watching spider-man into the spider-verse when the screaming started, so far we're about halfway through and it's amazing.
