Thing 1: What are you doing? Thing 2: Nothing   Thing 1: No way! Thing 2: Well, I’m talking now. Thing 1: And just that???   Thing 1: How do you do it? Thing 2: Lot’s of practice.   Thing 1: … Thing 1: wow

I started this comic a few years ago, but I couldn’t get it right. It’s about 4 panels longer now! And in pleasing news, for me, resting differently can involve a variety of things including magnesium, melatonin, meditation, and a CPAP machine. If you have a worry and the opportunity, I highly recommend a sleep study! Thing 1: Sometimes resting makes me really tired. Thing 1: So I don’t Thing 1: And then I fall over and rest all the time and I just feel worse! Thing 2: Maybe you need to rest differently. Thing 1: It’s exhausting to think about. Thing 1: I think I need to recover from thinking about resting and recovering before I figure out how to rest and recover. Thing 1: Which makes me so stressed I can’t sleep. Thing 1: What if I never sleep again? Thing 2: Boop! Thing 1: zzzzz

With gratitude to delightful author, Fonda Lee http://fondalee.com, whose questions on twitter led me to write some things that led to this comic. Thing 1: It’s all my fault. Thing 2: What? Thing 1: Everything, everything is my fault. Thing 2: No, it’s not. Thing 1: Really? Thing 2: Really. Thing 1: But what if you’re wrong? Thing 2: I’m not… and I think we need a snack. Thing 1: I think so too. My snack included lettuce leaves with fetta cream sauce and BBQ sauce. I don’t know if that is clever or bizarre, but I hope you are all having good snacks.

Thing 1: You are an amazing bunny Bunson: I used to think so too! Bunson and then I met bunnes 10 times more amazing! A pause Bunson: It’s inspiring Bunson dances away: Wheee!

I like to think Boot and Marie Curie would have hung out and been fierce together 🙂 Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less. – Marie Curie I like that Marie Curie says fear _less_. Understanding is so great for getting past blocks. Sometimes understanding might even be, hello ancient survival mechanism of fight, fight, freeze or fawn, would you like some blood pressure medication? I would like my mind to be clear while I face this scary thing! A steady heart can be handy in days of frayed souls.
