a new day

 well. first things first: i *did* win! which was great. and then i started the next round, because that's how kaycee's mod rolls. and - although i know i'm supposed to try to win with every starter deck - i picked ants again. and ended up with an unkillable insect totem, and i picked up the ouroboros again just before turning in for the night. so...

good :)

when i slept, i slept well, but i woke up in the middle of the night struggling with a sore back and one of my sinuses and panicked a little about possibly getting sick again. i got up so that i was at least not being restless and uncomfortable in bed, and pretty soon found myself nodding off again.

i woke up about an hour ago, still sore, but my sinuses seem to be alright. i don't know what everyone else is planning on doing today, but in a couple of hours i'm going to be heading out to the october 7th thing i deferred on thursday... 

...

i see this morning that we finally responded to the houthis' drone attack.

if iran is only a couple of weeks away from sufficient nuclear material, maybe we could consider doing the same to tehran? just sayin'.

gods help us all.
