I was so sure of the levees holding. Things were going great. Friends, just enjoying random conversations. I thought I had it DOWN!

Then you said something about wishing you could take a nap and all of a sudden I had this crushing desire to curl up next to you, like a litter-mate, and nap all warm and cozy against your side. The wave of feeling came from nowhere and just flowed right over the levees, completely indifferent to my puny walls of protection.

Where is the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers when you need a hand with this sort of disaster? There ain’t no justice in the world.
