I am a grownup

[petra]

I will not stay up all night writing the current ship of my heart, even if I did just rewatch The Empire Strikes Back and need the triangulation-comfort Luke/Leia novel.

I will not stay up all night listening to text-to-speech reading me my story History turner, either. But I may download it for bedtime reading.

I will not stay up all night watching John Oliver so I can write Petrova Truthers, because I am only in the middle of listening to the audiobook of Project Hail Mary and I need a better grasp on the canon before I feel comfortable really putting the lie to Andy Weir's And Everybody United narrative.

I will not stay up all night reading The Astrobiology Immersion Program, even though Grace & Rocky bodyswap, well done, is so, so delightful.

And I will not even stay up late enough to watch The Vampire Lestat ep 1, even though I have it in my hot little hands, because I want to watch it with sage or hannah or buggery or a combination thereof.

Because! I am a grownup! Yes, I am.

Your fortitude is commendable.

I am glad I slept, but o the fannishness I missed out on! The stories! The squee!

NGL, the 'not staying up late' part doesn't sound very fun.
*sigh
The SACRIFICES we make to act like adults. ;)

When you have enough sleep, I am here to cheerlead this novel!

Thought the whole point of finally being a grown up was we could stay up as late as we want and then eat cake for breakfast about it too.
