morganknightI woke up yesterday morning to Chibi Kami-Sama curled up in a ball on my chest and Zipper tucked up next to me. It's a miracle I don't squish those two in the middle of the night. I ended up staying in bed for a while just because I didn't want to disturb them. Pets are good for unconditional love.
Still, I miss waking up to Cadence curled up next to me. I'm very lucky to have found someone who wants that simple, quiet closeness as much as I do. I miss her terribly. I really hope her quest to find her parents is going well. Maybe her still being gone is a good sign.
On the other hand, with my luck, she'll find her parents and they won't approve of me.
I know my parents would approve of Cadence. I think they really would have liked her. On the other hand, I think my parents would have approved of anybody who makes me happy, if said person really does make me happy. I can't understand, at all, why parents would disapprove because of social class, or manners, or things like that. I keep hearing that, and yet... it just escapes me. What parent doesn't want to see his or her child happy?
Yesterday I checked back in with Nhairis to see if Andrea had gotten back yet (she hasn't), then ended up wandering around Rhydin for a while. I stumbled on what must be Stephen's uncle's store -- the one who isn't dead in Rhydin -- and ended up burning through a crapload of cash on all the damn cool stuff in there. My favorite purchase is my new trenchcoat -- titanium fiber weave. All the flexibility of normal cloth, not too much more weight, can stop most weapons and firearms with just minor bruising. It rocks.
I still felt like crap all yesterday though, what with everything that was happening, so as evening drifted along I went to see Katie in her new shop. That went just about like I'd hoped -- we talked about this and that and the other, and kidded each other around, and generally had a good time together. I like hanging out with her. She understands me.
In any case, I really ought to make plans to go out tonight.
