Anxious and Awake

Posted at 12:22 AM

So I’m trying to decide whether the reason I can’t sleep is that I have too much work to do or that my wife and I won’t learn about her electrocardiogram until later this evening.

She sure was cute wearing that portable monitor this weekend. Sort of like a girlie Vulcan with a tricorder. Only it had too many wires. Wires connected to sensors so sticky they gave her little hickeys when the Doctor removed them. Made me wonder how long it’s been since I gave her a hickey.

I can’t tell if she’s worried. She is sort of like a Vulcan that way too. I’m not sure if I’m worried either. Kind of anxious, I think. Anxious and awake.
