My psyche is cheaper than any therapist could ever be. And spends less time getting into my gray matter. Woke up at 4am this morning from a dream that was both horrible (cruel and real-in-the-way-you-know-you're-dreaming-but-scary-anyway) and illuminating (oh, well, d'oh!). Thought about it for a while, decided that having been made aware of how I was really feeling, I could now take action on it, and tried to go back to sleep.
Woke up around 6 by -- well, mainly by Boomer snuggling up to my shoulders like a cheap mink stole, but also by dream #2, which was less horrible (about having to get a number of cats out of a house, because of a suspected fire) but clarified something about the action I knew I was going to have to take.
No muss, no fuss, no insurance bill at the end of the month. My dreams are obliging that way.
Then I wrote a thousand+ words ofsmut character and plot development between two characters that happened to occur in bed, paid some bills, and took action on the action I had to take.
All before 10 am.
Do I get to take the rest of the day off?
No?
Drat.
