I'm a vampire. You may have been taught to fear me, or those like me. Well, this is the glamorous, terrifying, and threatening day in the life of a Vampire...
I woke at 4:38, after going to bed at 7 am, perhaps because it's my vampiric preference, or because I forgot to take my sleep meds... who's to say? With sunlight streaming in the window beside our bed the first thing my eyes see is the one I love lying beside me softly snoring, and soundly, sweetly asleep. I reach an arm under him to hold him while I stroke his hair with the other hand... and smile and whisper, "I love you" and hear something back which resembles "I love you, too" but I cannot be sure. http://www.courtoftheforsaken.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif
I get up, and go to my coffee pot, tripping over the sash on my bath robe... (mutter grouchyly), and begin to brew my coffee. I notice an IM from a friend on my screen and I sit down to send greetings back her way... explaining that I will not be sensible for the next two hours, or until my first infussion of coffee has taken effect... whichever comes first!
*Gods, I need a cigarette...* as I open the balcony door and walk out into the crisp air. *what's that goofy damned squirrel doing?* and I laugh as he looks up at me and shakes his tail as if to say... "I'll give you something to stare at!!" Looking out over the backyard, I think "where's my car?????"... *oh yeah... I put it in the garage because it was snowing* I relax and take my last drag on my cigarette and quickly head inside to the warmth.
Need to put some clothes on... throw on my black slacks, and a shirt that somehow doesn't even match black... ahhh, tomorrow I may wear all black, depends on what I grab first. Who cares? I'm not planning on going out.
*sigh*... (phone ringing) *do I HAVE to answer it??*... I look at the caller ID--daughter calling! I talk to my daughter and we laugh at the antics of my baby grand-daughter who is quite proud of herself for figuring out how to open the top to the wet wipes and proceed to pull out each wipe one at a time... and then look up at her mother and growl an onery... *HA ha!!!*
Well, it's time to get to it and I have things to do today. I pick up the phone and all those who I have to check on, those I need to check the status of business with, and those I need to return calls. DAMN look at the time!!! I have to get some dinner started!!!
As dinner cooks, my Love now awake, we laugh at things we find humorous, grumble about those things that we do not like, muse on what if's, and discuss the upcoming visit from daughter and family, the wishes to visit those we may never meet, and even a little gossip.
Whew, I'm hungry! I'm glad dinner is almost done! I run downstairs to watch dinner as it is close to finished, and call Rikkar to eat a sumptuous and exotic meal of fried rice! http://www.courtoftheforsaken.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/laughing.gif (Emeril, eat your heart out!)
With dinner done, we read some posts, work on our website, and reply to a few posts that catch our eyes and attention. Oh shoot, forgot to call my brother... *dials the phone* Talk to him awhile about things happening to him and trying to give him "big-sisterly-advice", laugh with and AT him, and say goodnight.
Well, here I am, bored, getting tired, and typing to you. I hope you enjoyed living vicariously through this vampire's life, even if for a day. I hope I didn't scare you too bad.
