Caught unawares

[cthulhia]

On the one hand, I am really glad that I am not crippled with cramps. They often don't really start until the second day (today) anyway. On the other hand, being out all day, at a volunteer meeting too late to go home to get supplies before a Hannuka gathering, in fact, have to run there from the train station, was, er, not ideal. Especially since I stayed fairly late having wonderfully stress-relieving conversation, feared infecting the hostess with my concerns for all her offwhite furniture, and didn't want to be heard through the thin walls tearing through her bathroom vanity.

Luckily, years of honing my emergency measures skills with paper products, and ways of sitting with legs folded under me, protecting the furniture, paid off again. But, the nervousness made things more intense, perhaps that's why the conversation went so well.
