My mind won the battle today. Curse it. Well, it wasn't a fair fight really. Me against my mind. It's like a chicken against Wayne Knight.

Hah. I was trying to remember Wayne Knight's name. So I was thinking Newman of course. So it became Wayne Newton in my head. Weird.

Damn you mind, stop confusing me.

Where was I? Okay, I stayed home from work today. Not because of my mind going "you're tired, you have to sleep, stay home, don't go, sleep, sleep". No. More because my leg were going "oooouuuuuwwww". They were hurting. Still. More. I would say they felt like they had been sawn off but that would be misleading. It felt more like they were in the process of being sawn off. Italics rule.

So I spent a nice day in bed mostly. There's just no point in going out and about when you can't move without your legs hurting like hell. There are plenty of more interesting ways to hurt yourself. Walking just isn't fashionable.

Skye got back on Yahoo Messenger and added me. Using her old yahoo website ID. That brought back memories. Our first poetry sites. I remember before I got internet access I drew up these pages with how I wanted my site to be. "This page links to this, and then that links to these, and they link back to...". And then getting on geocities and learning how to use pagebuilder and building a really rather ugly site. And then of course meeting Skye through my guestbook. Back in the day. Little did I know what was coming. It's so long ago. We would spend long nights talking together. And one night she told me she loved me. Bizarre and amazing and unexpected. I didn't really know how to deal with it. Only took me a couple of years hehe. She's softened up my heart. Back then I didn't think any of this would be possible. Funny how things can change...

Sweet memories indeed. But now I think it's time to go rest my weary legs again soon.
