Vampire Hours

Maybe I'm operating under the influence of the Sookie Stackhouse/"Southern Vampire" books I've been reading, but I have noticed for several weeks that I really only start to feel like getting up and out late in the day.

I don't literally rise at nightfall, but I sure want to be out in the cooler part of day, which is evening. The heat is oppressive. I just drag myself around in the house during the day.

Like now, it is after 12 a.m., and I'm working on a knitting project. But, it is time to go to bed.

The prednisone is giving me head aches and pains in my legs. I feel weaker in my upper body, but clearer in my mind.

And thank G-d for that!
