Facehugger: sixth night

Slept pretty well; woke up at 2-something and 5ish. Would have been quicker getting back to sleep the second time if I hadn't misread the clock again and waited for the alarm (which goes off at 6:15 normally). I'm a little surprised at how quickly I've gotten used to it: the straps are now tight enough that it doesn't leak to an objectional extent, and a couple of times I caught myself reaching up to verify that it was really on. The power of positive reinforcement, I guess.

Tomorrow my pet alien goes back to Kaiser where they will read its entrails memory card and sell me a shiny new one to take home to be my very own little pet alien.

Then I get to somehow attach a shelf to the side of my bed to hold it, and attach a hook to the dresser for the mask. Right now it's on the shelf that pulls out over the dresser drawer, which works pretty well but makes it difficult to get at the drawer (which I use for underwear and socks), and even more difficult to get at the next drawer down (which I use for T-shirts).

Those among you getting bored by this subject can take heart in the fact that I don't anticipate posting many more of these except to mark interesting events, such as the acquisition of new pillows or masks or the sudden appearance of a chestburster.
