Dinner went well. 
Little T and I made Shepard's Pie. 
I have never seen a kid eat so much freakin' food.  Then, first thing this morning after I got here he comes out and asks me if there is any more and can he have it for lunch.  (Actually he wanted just a "little, little, tiny piece" for breakfast too.)  I think he liked it.

I sort of made my "semi-reasonable" bed time.  After the kid went to be the T and I were discussing all the things we can't discuss in front of him.  At some point we got on the topic of how the apartment is going to be set up.  He started throwing out suggestions but because I'm such a visual person I have a hard time imagining things without seeing them.  His response to this...  "I have something to help with that"  or something like that.  He jumped up went to the computer, I sat on the couch wondering what the hell he was doing for a few minutes then more or less passed out until I woke up to him playing with my feet. 
What was he doing?
Making a layout of my apartment via the Sims.
Hilarious!
After I got over my amusement at the situation I realize it was actually a pretty good idea.  We didn't really decide anything except that the cable comes in the living room in a really awful spot.
I left here a little bit after midnight, got home, showered and was in bed by 1a.  Later than I wanted but not that bad, add that to the fact that I didn't have to be here until 8a... I feel much better.  Still tired, but feeling much better!

I miss bed sex. 
Never thought I'd say that.
Though I totally enjoy the shower sex and living-room blow-jobs, I miss the non-rushed sex that comes behind closed, locked, bedroom doors.
That's gonna be some good sexin' when it happens.

Today I need to...
- Come up with something to do with a handful of strawberries.
- Send out a few resumes.
- Call my landlord, discuss plans.
- Make sure Little T is at home at 3.30p
- Decide if I'm gonna go get a drink with Miss. Kelly and what to wear when I decide that I have to go.
- Burn cd for Nate.

I don't know why they're frozen.  They're sitting a foot away from the heater.  Makes no sense.

I've worked in the "industry" for about a year and a half now.  And EVERY DAY for the past year and a half my feet have hurt.  The pain ranges from "OH MY GOD I CAN"T WALK" curl up in a ball crying kind of pain.  To a mild, dull background sort of pain.

While on the ship the pain got so intense that I actually went to a podiatrist for it.  The diagnosed me with Plantar Fascitist.  Which I knew that's what it was.  They gave me things to make my feet feel better.  Inserts.  Which I hated for the first 2 weeks because they were uncomfortable as hell.  But I dealt with them.

It took about 2 - 3 weeks after I got off the ship and wasn't working everyday before I could wake up in the morning and get out of bed in the morning and walk like a normal person because my feet didn't hurt. 

When I thought I was still going to the ship I went out and got a pair of Dansko's.  I got them because many people on the ship swore by them and I figured I'd try them out.  Well, as well all know I didn't end up back on the ship but I am still serving and I have to say...

They're the best fucking shoes EVER!!!

 I worked two doubles this week.  And my feet aren't exactly happy feet... they're doing pretty damn great all things considered.  And I woke up this morning and it didn't take me 10 minutes to get to the point where I could walk around without hobbling because my feet hurt.  I don't think I'll ever buy another type of shoe for work.  I'm completely hooked.
