I played with a litter of puppies last week. This meta is like that. Thanks, Peter!

Sweet, thanks!
On a beach the last few days, where twice, after hiding all day, cross-sections of the sun -- just a little faded and orangey from wildfire smoke -- have been visible for only a minute or two as it passes behind the tiny slit between the ocean and the marine layer above.

Off the couch.
Edit: not so fast - still on the couch. I thought that seemed a little too easy.
Edit#2: Off the couch again. Mr. Abide does not disappoint.

I have "the COVID" something awful (actually, I am on the mend and, yes, had been fully vaccinated with the officially approved Pfizer, was diseased by a close relative who also had been fully vaccinated with Pfizer). I am going to refill my spirits, as soon as is practical.
Like Schrรถdinger's cat, I am both off the couch (solved) & on it (pathetic & surrounded by ugly detritus). Remove the blanket to see if there is any "he is" there.
[EDIT: Thank you for the good wishes expressed here & privately. I am on the mend, and merely had symptoms of a decent flu, with none of the signs of serious illness others have faced. I responded well to OTC flu meds, vitamins, fluids, & a lot of rest. Please, do not worry about me. I will be well, soon! THANK YOU!]

I was going to thumb your post in support - but it felt wrong to give a thumbs up (or like) to such a statement as I don't like it.
Hope to see you off the couch soon - get better quickly.

Off the couch awaiting confirmation
Great meta - it brought a great laugh
Confirmed - now for a margarita

A few folks that claimed off the couch were actually watching a pageant.

Think I got it. Cute. (I take a little umbrage at 6D... I have a good head for heights.)

Funny story. I was all set to enter Par for the course for the CrossHare midi contest for April but I mistakenly thought midi meant 7x 7 and not 11 x 11. Oops. Well.... Here's a complex but **small** meta on the subject of golf.

Well I THINK I have it, my answer made perfect sense with the puzzle, but then Peter has "swimsuit competititoned" me before (pageantly speaking, you would NOT want to see me in that competition I can assure you).
Still waiting to see if I am uncouched or just uncouth (now STOP, just because I give you a lead in....)
EDIT: Given the message I got back from Abide it looks like I do NOT have the answer. I am absolutely gobstruck because everything fit perfectly and there was at least one confirming point to the answer. Oh, wel, describes my Meta weeks lately.

NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!

Umbrage - is that like a brown out?
