Having stayed up too late last night, I was super tired when Keldor’s alarm went off this morning, but, of course, I got up anyway.
I didn’t accomplish as much as usual during our phone call, and by the time he arrived at work he suggested that I just go back to bed.
I tried, but as soon as I lay down, my brain started thinking of database stuff, and it was clear that I wouldn’t sleep, so I got up and went to work.
I managed to finish getting my work blog upgraded to Quartz v5, which means that for the first time since I created it, the links in the properties work as they are meant to., which makes me very happy.
I managed about four hours work before my body decided that it needed sleep, and then I slept for three hours.
I woke starving, so made some food, and just as I was about to take it to the computer to do more work, Gilbert arrived to get my help working on his gambeson. When he got here I was feeling tired and unenthusiastic about the project (or any project, really)
I greeted hin with a hug, and to my surprise, he gave me a smooch, too.
Then he brought in his stuff, sat down next to me in the kitchen where I had been eating, and explained that he had fallen in love with me, and didn’t know what to do.
It is amazing what a positive effect such a confession has on my energy levels! He asked if it is ok, and I replied that love is always wonderful, and we shared a few more hugs, and a couple of smooches before settling in to work on the project.
So instead of work I helped him with Gilbert’s Gambeson. We managed to get a pattern created, by cutting towels to fit him. These serve both as the pattern, and as the lining for the project.
Then it was time for yoga and training.
