Since I spent most of yesterday on the couch, it seemed a shame to change my game plan for something as irrelevant as bed time. Unfortunately, the couch is not comfortable for sleeping. It’s also extremely difficult to get any rest when it feels as though the chorus line from The Second Coming of Jesus: The Musical is kick-stepping its way through your intestines. All in all, I’ve had better nights.

As if I didn’t have enough to worry about, there are reports of BEARS in North Vancouver. BEARS! I think I’ll be safe, though. If nothing else, the terrifying rumblings coming from my belly regions will scare the fiercest of beasts away. Plus, I have Sasha. She is beyond delighted that I am at home today, and is showering me with affection and cat dander. She could easily take a bear down.

Oh Crossing Jordan reruns, how I’ve missed you!
