Some days, you just get by.
Tired
Fearful
Small and crawly
on no sleep
(troubles, troubles)
and a too-early dentist appointment
made in good faith a year ago
kept in resignation
and out of more fear
(bad gums, the family curse).
And then
after a day of throwing down too many
cups of caffeine
(all flavors)
and an afternoon of pushing through too many
scary jobs,
tired and fearful,
small and crawly
you straggle home
exhausted
from An Event
(really, it was lovely,
we were just fagged out
and not in a gay way)
and The BF
gives you a tutorial in alpha channels
and makes all the bad things
disappear.
This
is why
I love being a nerd
This
is why
I love being in love with one.

So nerdy that I have absolutely no idea what alpha channels are, but I can just look at the achingly cool picture instead!
Well, thank you mightily for the compliment. The BF thought it was kinda lame, but I love it, too.
