A real woman would have gotten out of bed and make a quiche
I did a little reading this morning about Restless Legs Syndrome because last night while I was trying to fall asleep I felt as if my legs wanted to detach from my body and take a nice 30-mile run.
I’m going to guess based on what I read that my twitching parts had more to do with the fact that I spent a lot of time sitting in a chair writing yesterday, than with any neurological disorder. But dang, once I finally fell asleep I had a dream that I was running to catch a train, but had to keep running back to my hotel room because I kept noticing that I had on other people’s clothes and needed to return them and find my own. When I finally reached the train platform, everybody else was naked from the waist down. I wondered if their pants were in my suitcase.
That was a whole lot of regular people’s genitals to look at, and let me tell you, the people in skin mags? They can’t be real.
Also, it was so humid that my ears filled up with condensation that was too deep to remove with a Q-Tip, so I felt like I was underwater all night.
In case the thought of regular people’s genitals wasn’t nauseating enough.

Whoa, babe. You need a break. Any decisions on the east coast trip, so I can take you away from all this and ply you with drinks and sushi?

Wow. Humid genitals is something I DON’T miss about the Midwest. Yeah. I don’t miss those. Thanks for reminding me Kelly.

Tonic water is worth a try, if this is an ongoing problem. Mix it with juice if you don’t like the taste. My father in law swears by it for twitching legs at night. The weird dreams, I have no cure for…

Alicia, I’m happy to remind you of how nasty it can get in the humidity. Blech.
Hmmm, Thanks Emily. I’ll give that a try. I have some on hand from some gin and tonics, something I’m no longer allowed to drink. The juniper makes me crazy mean.

Becca! It’s looking like beginning of August, I think. But not positive yet. Of course, I’m going to have NO spending money, so…might have to put off the sushi thing for when I’m a little more flush. Soo looking forward to meeting you!
