I’m sitting at my acupuncturist’s office, slowly coming back to reality. She did a whole hour session for me today, with a cozy little heat lamp, and I felt so zen afterward. She told me I needed to chill in the waiting room for at least 15 minutes before driving, so I must seem pretty out of it. Hee hee. She even got me a nice cup of “zen” tea while I wait. It’s nice to feel so peaceful once in a while

Congrats, @KristoKekerooni!! Though I think I speak for everyone when I say I'm not shocked that they recognized you're amazingness.
DH and I are getting a new kitten tomorrow! An old friend of his (probably a girl he briefly dated, but whatev) has three 12 week old boys her friend found. They just got a clean bill of health from the vet, so we're going to go pick one up tomorrow morning. Our dog will be really excited (he loves cats). It'll be interesting to see how our cat reacts, but I'm sure he'll love his new brother within a week or two.
