I am smelling the tapioca pudding cooling on the counter (snack for after this sprint), tasting cold water (have to stay hydrated to stay up all 24hrs), seeing my foster kitten Oskar and my book (Silent City, by Alex Segura), and listening to a 90s soft rock playlist, for now, to go with the book. In a minute though I am going back to my audiobook of Attack Surface, by Cory Doctorow, while I clean some berries to go with the pudding. :) Oh, and I need to fit in stretching during the audiobook too this hour- sitting too long is making my back tired.
