"I've got pastures waiting in the woods........."

When I woke up this morning, it was 3 degrees outside.

I let myself have fun last night, and it was, not surprisingly to some, fun. And although I still had my usual morning emotional lapse, and tonight is likely going to be very difficult, I'm still glad I allowed myself to squirm out of the tight grip I seem to put around my mind, if only for a little while.
