The anticipation of getting to go watch Captain America 2 in the theater 2 weeks after release (so we can use our Silver AMC movie passes!) has carried me through a few weeks of feeling less than human.
My brain wants to know if you’d rather….
Follow Captain Mal and Zoey into a caper, or be the Jarvis to Tony Stark’s Iron Man?
Do all the laundry your way, or have it all done by someone else according to how they think it should be done?
Be smothered by a cat’s affection or ostracized by a dog?
Be stocked up on nonfat milk, skim milk, whole milk or chocolate milk? You can only pick one.
Pay $9 (!!!) for matinee movie tickets and wait in line to get your seat or pay $14 (!!!) for both your ticket and a reserved seat at any time?
Have a toaster or toaster oven?
Disneyland or DisneyWorld?
Garlic fries or buttered popcorn?

We had a lively Saturday and now Doggle and I are crashed out, me with about 25% mobility, him with wondering why I’m taking five times longer to fill his water bowl while he stares at it, pointedly. Probably I’m the servant he would fire to make a point.
Left to its own devices, my brain wants to know if you’d rather….
Handwash dishes, or use the dishwasher?
Have a robot vacuum, risking a SkyNet/Cylon invasion one day, or just live in a dirty house for weeks?
Use an electric toothbrush or regular toothbrush?
Live with less traffic and few friends to visit or have Carmageddon be your norm with lots of friends?
Have a life of adventure or sense of adventure?
Be able to sing one song really well or whistle anything really well?
Hang out with Laurence Fishburne or Mads Mikkelsen for a day?
Spend 6 months traveling your own country, or 6 weeks traveling internationally? Solo or with the whole family?

Seriously. The value of regular, good rest is just underrated.
In advance of the holiday season, I’d like to take this chance to remind everyone to be careful amidst all the holidaying that I’m sure is beginning (or has already begun). Please be safe!
I’d like to blog about end-of-life preparedness soon, but I’m going to need to get some rest, all these funerals attended, and some more rest before I can get to that.

I’m not feeling so hot tonight, which might be due to the terrible air quality, so I’m going to:
1. Not think about BroDucky. Fussing about him last night gave me nightmares, literally, about fighting with him. Nope. Not gonna think about it.
2. Not worry about scheduling doctor’s appointments.
3. Or dentist appointments.
4. Not think about the wedding.
5. Not worry about BoyDucky’s dad, and how MaDucky seriously needs better health insurance.
6. Not worry about how I’m going to come up with 40K for my half of the house investing venture in the next 8 months. I can crunch numbers on the train tomorrow.
7. Take a shower, get into bed by 8 pm. Read a book, if I feel like it, or just go to sleep if my head still hurts.
That’s it.
