Something that had been very very rare lately was happening right now: Kate was waking up happy.
Last night, Overland Park time, there had been a thing at her parents' house, just a get-together with snacks at the insistence of her mother. Neil had been there and there had been much fussing over Charmaine, and it should've been lame but... It hadn't been. Kate had actually had fun. In a dorky way. She'd even found herself gossiping in the kitchen with her mother while they got more dip and soda for everyone. It was insane, but oh so damn needed.
Kate knew she was repressing many a thing waiting for her back in Fandom, but she thought that was allowed. Anything that kept her holding on to her sanity was totally allowed. And right now, being in this room and slowly drifting to proper wakefulness without immediately stressing herself out with what other people were doing was what her sanity needed.
With a sigh, she rolled onto her back and smiled at the ceiling. It was a rare good day to be her.
