My 610th Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

I'm so sleepy! MSG woke up like 3 hours ago and was all stressed out about something and we all tried to shush him back to sleep by looking for comforting things to say or even just trying to distract him, and Sash was doing a pretty good job for a little while, but he just kept staying up and finally gave up on going back to sleep ... and normally I'd just be able to go right back to sleep once he left and went upstairs but for some reason it didn't work that way today and now I'm still up and all tired and stuff. It's pretty frustrating!

Anyway, since I'm up I figured I'd better do something, so here I am blogging for a little and maybe it will take so much energy that I'll be able to go back to sleep.

Oosh ... I just yawned really big!

It's working!

Goodnight again, Journal!

Love you!

My 609th Journal Entry

Hi, Journal!

Wowzer-wow-kapow, Journal ... the last two weeks have been amaziiiiing!

I guess I had gotten pretty used to only holding and hugging my boyfriend and girlfriends from inside my box while my back was hurt, and it was always so good every time I could do that, because I just love them all so much and spending time with them is the most beautiful thing in the world and looking into MSG's eyes, or Elle's, or having Sash tickle me or Claire bump my nose with her nose or just lying there cuddling with Hettie or Akane while either one of them talked (because they both talk so great!) -- all of it always seemed like the most perfect thing anybody could ever experience.

And then OMG MY BACK GOT FIXED AND I COULD GET OUT OF MY BOX AND, AND --

WOOOOOSHHHH!!!

All of the awkwardness of being in my box and people having to deal with that and figure out how to snuggle or hug was gone.

You really don't notice how much you miss something like just holding someone you love in bed and looking at their eyes and being able to roll this way or that and change the angle you're looking at them without even thinking about it or even just spread out and take up all kinds of space in the bed -- and then you're able to do all that again and it's just ... wow!

It's the best.

Let's not ever do that breaking my back thing again ever, right?

Love you!

Hi, Journal!

I got out of my box today and I feel like a whole new girl!

You know what's crazy? My five year anniversary with MSG and Claire and Elle and Sash is coming up in less than a week ... and my three year anniversary of hurting my back and getting stuck in my box was four months ago! Holy moley! I was only here a little over a year and a half before my spine went kerblang. That's whack, isn't it?

But now I'm all better!

I know what you're thinking ... "Now she ought to be plenty able to get to the computer and blog more often!"

Maybe!

But at least for a little while, um, I may have a different destination and a different activity that I'll be concentrating on doing more often, so ... be patient with me!

Love you, Journal!
