It Worked!

Other than opening my eyes a few fleeting times during the night, I slept straight through for seven whole hours and woke up feeling pretty damn good.

Of course, I'm due for another dose of steroids in about an hour. . . .

The snow is still coming down, and it's really peaceful—the only sound I hear right now is Zach's shovel on the sidewalk outside. I've got plenty of work to do (still hoping to graduate on time if at all possible), the Olympics are on, and Zach has stocked up on lots of good food, starting with the makings of homemade cornmeal pancakes and bacon for a hearty Sunday breakfast.

Should be a good day.
