The sky tonight was gray. No clouds. No stars. Not even grey. Just gray.

I'm going to go reclaim some sleep. 10 hours over the last three nights does not make for good sleeping patterns, but I will still try.

There's someone who shouldn't be cold tonight.

What's the quote from... it sound vaguely familiar, but I may be thinking of something else.

[alvire]

It's from a sea shanty someone had sung to me earlier in the day. /grin. I'd never heard it before, but it's one of those phrases that sounds vaguely familiar, y'know.

He disappears off the face of the earth for months, not even a phone call, and now he's suddenly back and not saying anything, even for poor old me, just waiting to hear how his life is going....

God, I am such a Jewish mother.

Sans the Jewish

And the mother...

*glomps* Marshall, you will always and forever rock. Also, I now award you the ability to honorarily claim for yourself the title of Jewish Mother.

I'll tell you sometime over AIM or something.

Listen to mine? You don't want it over the phone. You want it in-person, not in sleep-dep mode, and after I've had a chance to get away from it for a second. Talk about your increasing guilt (and not from you)...

Also, you probably don't want to hear it when I've got quite so much alcohol in my system. Gah, I needed this. But I didn't need this.

[ahra]

wait which didn't you need? me or the alcohol?

[alvire]

I didn't need the thing that was distressing me at that moment. Still is stressing me, but to a lesser degree. I did need the alcohol that night. And things are looking up, more. (Note to self: dependence on alcohol for stress removal is a bad pattern. Attempt to find alternate method. Damn there being no roads around here that are good for driving. And no friend that's good for taking on those nonexistent roads. Well, maybe I have one or two. But not as good as taking you or Jasmin, say.)
