Who Needs Sleep?

I was so proud of myself for getting to bed before 12. Then I woke up at something around 3. I'm not sure because I was convinced that if I looked at the clock, I wouldn't be able to sleep. After a while, I couldn't sleep and looked at the clock and it was 3:30. Still couldn't sleep. Finally gave up around 4:30. Sadly I'm not being very productive.

I am tired of Petrillo.

tired

It seems like no matter what, there's always a big assignment hanging over my head. It makes me feel tired. Even after a break, it's tiring because it's always there in the background. Blech.

ohhhh

Thanksgiving - good - lots of yummy food, parental units and pups
My first black Friday - meh. In the future, probably won't do the 5am thing but might hit department stores around 10.
My productivity level waaay too low. Oral argument's going to be horrible and trying not to let final trial weigh me down until after oral argument.



So, more details later and now I try to be productive and cram.

saw it on a flair

something to the effect of:
After Monday and Tuesday, even the calendar goes WTF

Bleep!

I've finally achieved enough distance from my Ap Ad paper to find a lot of mistakes and areas for improvement that I totally missed before. Bleep!

New Moon

Not as bad as I thought it would be. I would have liked the Voluri drawn out a bit more. As usual I have issues with the casting and for some reason Alice just was not Alicy in this one. The whole Edward in a suit almost everytime you saw him kinda aged him a bit.

music

I have finally discovered Pandora radio. LOVE IT. I mean I kept hearing about it but never tried it. Wow.

Music

I think I should have no other mortal wants, if I could always have plenty of music. It seems to infuse strength into my limbs and ideas into my brain. Life seems to go on without effort, when I am filled with music.
George Eliot (1819 - 1880)

"Music is my hot hot sex. "

Ah, music. A magic beyond all we do here!
J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, 1997

I can't listen to that much Wagner. I start getting the urge to conquer Poland.
Woody Allen (1935 - )

"Music is what feelings sound like."

“Words make you think a thought. Music makes you feel a feeling. A song makes you feel a thought.”

Want Sleep!!!!

Urg, didn't "finish" the stupid paper until late and then couldn't sleep so I got like an hour sleep this morning, an hour nap after class. I just want to nap not go to another class. I hope the class gets out early. Really, I might just crash as soon as I walk through the door and just not get up again until tomorrow. I hate how all-nighters mess up my sleep schedule. So sleepy and non-functional but can't sleep. Boo!

proof reading

I know I'm not perfect with the whole proof reading thing, but I get annoyed with some people. If you're highly placed in an organization and are sending a mass e-mail out to others in that organization, oh, AND you've lectured others on proof reading, then would it kill you to proof read your e-mails? Or at lease have one of your lackeys do it?

somedays

One of those days where everything would be better if I could just go back to bed and sleep until tomorrow. Sadly, I have far too much to do. Seriously, if I pass this class, it's going to be a pity pass. (But I'll take it!)

nap

It's cold and rainy outside. I haven't been sleeping much. I want a nap. I know it sounds cranky, and I am, but it's the truth.

Cranky

I'm cranky and violent in the morning. . . I knew that but this morning it's becoming clearer how much so.

Think me imagining flicking a pen and having it go at least half-way deep in someone. For example.

Here fishy fishy

What with staring at the computer screen all day, lack of sleep, and dry winter creeping in, I suffer dry eye. So, figuring what the hey, I'm trying fish oil capsules. I'll give it two weeks and see.

just breathe . . .

"I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain. "

From Me to Me

To celebrate my birtday this week, I am skipping a class that causes me a great deal of stress and treating myself to a yummy from Montana Plain. Any further celebrations will have to wait until the exam frenzy is over.

Anyone out there want to write my paper for me? That'd be nice!

funny!

Taylor Swift's SNL monologue. Funny!

Need motivation

I'm in a bad cycle. I don't want to get up because I can't sleep because I don't get up until late because I can't sleep because I don't get up until late . . .

Not fun.

also

They need to play more The Paper Raincoat. If you don't know who I'm talking about, look them up on youtube.

music

So. . . is it bad that I like this song? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JltC3ek0MBw

My GPS arrived

In the process of unpacking it, I found an "alco-prepr" "pre-injection cleansing swab" probably to clean the glass before putting the suction cup thingy on the windshield, but still. . .

I just realized . . .

I think part of my problem with this assignment is that it goes against four years of training in the opposite direction. . . opps!

my amazon order

Okay USPS, I know you have it. Now, I just have to be here whenever you decide to randomly show up and hand it over so I don't have to wait until Monday to drive all the way to the office. Bring it.

good faith is

Good faith is a warm heart and empty head.

Quick! What am I doing around April 17th?!?!?!

whiney

I'm whiney today.

I don't wanna!!!
Don't wanna do homework! Don't wanna have to get ready for tomorrow!

I think it's the whole big bad day after the weekend type of thing.

creme brulee candy corn - yummy

The course listings are out. My goal is to have classes done by 6. This whole not getting back until late half the time messes with my sleep schedule which is already easily messed up. I'm disappointed. I was expecting more. It's pretty much the same as last spring semester. I thought there would be more since we have new professors. I might have three day weekends again. Turns out that does more harm than good. I refuse to take the intensive. I'm intensived out and if things go well I might get to spend more time home this break. I miss being able to see the stars. Anyway, I want to be done with school so I have time to do my work and settle down to go to sleep at a decent hour.
