@Testament Yep, that’ll do it.

hip count?

@GF To be fair, in my case it was feet, but the other two followed not too long after despite that.
ETA: And I still work on my feet most days. “Unable to serve due to disqualifying conditions” my ass.

“Over the hill. Is that forty or fifty?”
It’s not measured in years. It’s measured by when you get your first chronic injury in your knee or lower back.
Well, that sure explains my entire personality. I’ve been a Grumpy Old Man since I was twelve, by this measure.

@IoleRae When my dad turned 40, my older brothers did a big presentation with one of those giant easel sketchbooks. The presentation was called
Things That Are Older Than Dad
It included entries such as the following:
- Dirt
- The Earth
- Dinosaurs
- Time
- God
- Granddad
I really hope my parents still have that sketchbook somewhere.
I have high expectations for my birthday.

I’m in a bit of an RP rut lately, and that sucks. It’s of my own making!
I have lots of hooks to work on, tons of support to get to interesting story things, and I feel extreme levels of gratitude that if I reach my hand out, I can grab the RP I crave with ease, and I take none of that effort for granted.
I want to be the person who RPs a ton, and life just isn’t getting the memo right now (I’m having sleep disorder problems, which poisons everything.) Thanks to all the people who keep poking me to play, and I’m sorry that most days the answer has been a bleary ‘Maaaaybe’.
I want to be so much more than this.

@Solstice Not giving up on you. You have a plot hook waiting and that invitation.
But on your own time. When your ready.

So what you’re saying is:
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you doooown

Yo, who’s ready for a hot take? Think twice before you answer. This take is so hot you might get burnt. Got some aloe vera ready? Because I won’t be held accountable for the psychic trauma this blistering hot take inflicts.
Okay. You were warned. With no further ado, here is a take so hot it could smelt iron.
Cats sleeping on someone’s face is only cute when it happens to someone else.

Cats are not allowed in rooms where I’m sleeping. Period.
I’m happy to pet them and snuggle them and cuddle them when they’re asleep, but when I’m asleep? That’s a hard no.
We had a long-haired cat when I was 12 or so and I have vivid memories of one night where I woke up in pure panic multiple times because I couldn’t breathe and in that state of groggy incoherence, didn’t realize what was happening for several seconds. Just that it was dark, there was no air, and my face was numb.
We have two cats that, when we lived in our first apartment, would wake me up several times a night with their “Run Around the House All Batshit Crazy” and not just from the noise. I mean they were chasing each other around and I’d be startled awake by having ten pounds of cat land forcefully on me and then use me as a launching pad to the next obstacle.
Insomniac, who loves to sleep under a giant cat pile, finds this very disappointing… but he’s also impossible to wake up and snores like a diesel engine. Y’all can sleep across the hall. I’ll be over here with the dog nestled in his own bed on the floor and the door closed, thanks.
-
I like to live dangerously, allergic to cats and slumbering beneath a cat butt on my shoulder.

There’s no better way to wake up than to have a cat purring against you. Even if it’s still dark out. And you could sleep for another hour. Or two.
ETA: this is the natural order of things:
Kitty is sleeping on my sleeve so I shall cut off my priceless piece of clothing.
