Better

OK... after a few good meals and some healthy conversations, (Thanks, folks-- I love you, too!) real sleep in my actual bed, and a day spent plowing through the backlog, I am once again approaching a semblance of sanity.

The prayer issue is still there, feeling like the talk in my head isn't going further; but I've encountered dry spells before, and feel in a much better frame of mind to weather it, when I'm not feeling so splintered and incompetent in the rest of my life as well.

Things I'm thankful for:
Sympathetic ears
Victories over ATLA (the Evil Overlord of databases)
Mint Oreo ice cream
Flannel sheets
iChat
Hot showers with lavender soap
