A Rare Early Morning Post



You're the time of day right around sunrise, when the sky is still a pale bluish gray. The streets are empty, and the grass and leaves are a little bit sparkly with dew. You are the sound of a few chirpy birds outside the window. You are quiet, peaceful, and contemplative. If you move slowly, it's not because you're lazy – it's because you know there's no reason to rush. You move like a relaxed cat, pausing for deep stretches that make your muscles feel alive. You are long sips of tea or coffee (out of a mug that's held with both hands) that slowly warm your insides just as the sun is brightening the sky.

In other early morning news, I've been dreamed about! Buck is in it, too. Too weird.

Yes, it was weird. I was so impressed by your tree house, too. And it was huge! It's really rather sad that it's not real. Although it would be cool if you really lived closer to me sometimes. :)

I'm (supposedly) 10:02 a.m. Which is about as wrong as could be. Interesting, but wrong.

Swiss Family Becky? Yep: weird. But COOL!

I always wanted to live in a tree house--just like the one is Swiss Family Robinson. That would have been a cool dream to be in.
