early to rise

happiness insists... at least i did get to sleep somewhat around midnight i think and i only woke a couple of times so i am sort of rested but i am gonna want to nap today cuz waking at sunrise is just not my normal circadian rhythm... but the dog has been walked and fed and and petted and played with and the porch door is open so he's a happy camper (except for the missing-mom malaise he goes through) and life is sweet...

the air, on the other hand... ah, i will be so very happy to move out of this apartment because it is not only cramped, especially the kitchen, but it stinks... and partly that may be the porch and the grass/bushes outside the porch because this place has a whole lot of dogs and the dog owners let their dogs pee and poop right outside people's porches rather than walk them away from the buildings and there are plenty of walk areas (including a dog park) away from the buildings... but even more to the stink, dear happiness is getting older and has accidents and really smells... not just wet dog, but definitely that because he wants to be outdoors so much and it is so very humid outdoor dogs are wet dogs in florida, especially lately... it;s also urine...

sitting here is sometimes, often of lake, like sitting in a poorly cleaned public rest room... sadly, new york city subway bathrooms smell better than this place sometimes... today is one of those days, like sitting in a stinky bathroom...

i don't think about it much and clean and use air freshener a lot, but it's definitely the biggest reason i want to move... space is also a reason, as is location, but both are definitely second to the stink...
