Hi @Phoenix_Rising and all.

Not-friends don't vanish, you are correct 🙂 
 
I do think I accidentally spilled superglue in my pocket the other day as I seem to have become very stuck too, though upon a quick look through the ocean it appears you have also found yourself glued to the roof too. It may have also been one of those not-totally-completely-an-accident things for me, as having you stuck in there has been so helpful over the last tricky days (which now feel so long they feel like months!) that I am wondering whether I may have seen it coming and made sure we would be together-but-not when it hit. 
 
While I am not-here, I wanted to say a huge thank you for your post last night about being able to talk to you even when I can't. Getting that message made a world of difference to me at the time, maybe more than you might have thought it would. Following that, Pokey, you, the pocket crew and I talked (and not-talked) well into the wee hours of the morning in a pink fluffy blanket (yay for self-soothing skills). My "I don't have this" words were quieter after hearing your "You've/We've got this" ones. They are again after your post tonight. You truly are such an awesome not-friend and I am very thankful our oceans collided.
 
We did go out (though I don't think it was to Alaska - I didn't see any pyramids :P), which meant I left the house for the first time in more days than it should have been, and we went to the movies. I hit a wall. Like actually hit a wall when I walked into it. Being the not-friend you are, I heard you laughing a lot once you realised I was not hurt 😄 Laughing together always makes me feel a little better.
 
I really liked hearing the suggestion of why you may not have seen me the other night/last night/what day is it today?, which gave me big warm fuzzies. I have been in ninja bear mode, where I may need to be for a little longer yet (I am not sure and am working on it). I miss you when I am not-here, but I am always here even when I am not.
 
Night 🙂
