Ready to Roll

Everything was still and dim, but suddenly my fingers twitched. Just like that, the stiffness snapped right off. I pressed my right glove down against the soft, bumpy dark folds beneath me, giving it a test push. Solid enough! With a quick shift of weight, I swung my legs forward and perched upright on the ridges of the blanket. Plenty of room ahead, and I'm ready to roll.
