Too much in too little time!
I'm not missing a day, dammit.
But I am TIRED and heading to bed imminently.
I did *not* wake up with a hangover, though I didn't wake up terribly well-rested, either.
Dancing last night definitely drove home in another fashion how much my endurance has suffered. Once upon a time, we would go out to clubs two-three times per week most weeks, and I could make it through many songs without a break. Last night I felt it after one, and after a good hour or so of fairly constant movement I was hurting.
Unfortunately, I don't know that we'll go back for other Sundays, which is a shame, because my current schedule would make Sunday nights the perfect club night. But this was really more of a bar than a club, so while it had a dance floor and decent sound system, more space was devoted to the bar, and it was lit more for people who wanted to talk. Also ALL seating is by paid reservation only, and so if you don't want to pay for a "VIP table", you have to stand the whole time. Alex was uncomfortable (anxious), so he didn't want to dance at all.
Made it home by midnight though, so I didn't totally kill myself with lack of sleep.
Then today I did manage to get up and go on a hike with Taylor. :) We went to Mt. Falcon again, and took a slightly longer trail than last time. My endurance was still pretty bad, but not quite as bad as when Alex and I were there before, so either I've gotten better, or it was some other factors that led to my issues last time. I've got some pictures, but those will be for another day.
After getting back from the hike, we watched The Old Guard, which I've been wanting to see yet failing to watch ever since it came out. Then we read some more of That Ain't Witchcraft and Taylor started a playthrough of Transistor. Then we listened to the season 4 Q&A for The Magnus Archives.
And I am SO FUCKING TIRED it's unreal, so I'm going to try to be unconscious on this terribly uncomfortable loveseat.

No comment on The Old Guard; were no not impressed?

I actually really enjoyed The Old Guard! I would watch Charlize Theron in as many action movies as she wants to be in, lol. And it absolutely hit on a ton of favorite tropes of mine - immortality (and playing with what that means), competence porn, Nicky and Joe have their whole soulmate thing going on, the Big Bad being not-so-subtly based on real-life Pharma Bro asshole, some really great choreography... I'll probably watch it again sometime, and now I can wade into all the fandom stuff I hadn't wanted to look at for fear of spoilers. ;)

Hope you get some rest soon, sounds like you had way too much to do in too little time. ^^;;

And thank you. I think I'm still going to be recovering for a bit, because that was probably more than I've done in the last six months, crammed into four days.
