Busy-body...

Slept approx 1:30am to 5:30am today, Made myself stay in bed (albeit with laptop between attempts to get back to sleep) until 9:30ish, but now in an "if I'm not going to sleep, I might as well Get Stuff Done" mood, which is good. A curious thing about my insomnia is that when I don't sleep during the night I have about a 30/70 chance of being strangely clear-headed and focused the next day instead of extra-spacy and depressed. Not quite sure what that means. Last night was definitely a depression bit. Worked late (for the only time that week), put off food too long, and just suddenly ran out of cope and crashed hard. I think part of the reason I went to bed as late as I did was because I was in one of those states where I just didn't have the motivation to get to sleep. And yet, today, while not exactly brimming with extra spoons, I feel strangely able to focus and full of motivation (part of the reason I haven't been able to get back to sleep). Some of the things I would like to get done today (mostly just thinking out loud at this point):

- Edit more Second Shift scenes (currently a bit less than 1/3 of the way through episode 2.12)
- Clean room (depression plus busy-ness plus a number of packages arriving = holy crap my room is a mess)
- Contemplate personal issues
- Return faulty sandals (Basil!!)
- Laundry
- Enjoy a glass of SILK NOG! (which is not nearly as nasty as it sounds)
- Watch another ep from the This American Life TV show dvd
- Take a nap before zomgthiseveningisfullofparties so as to maintain spoonfulness
- Don't wait until out of spoons to do something re-energizing

Argh, the torture! My random playlist brought up a track from Evil Dead: The Musical, my adoration for which I have ranted about here previously. This led to me checking their website to see, against hope, if they were making good on their promise to take the show on tour, and....

...They are!

...Just not anywhere near Boston.

Damn.

Ok, two things:

Thing 1: skipperdee, take note that there's one in Council Bluffs 11/13-21. Even if it's a drive for you, I guarantee it's worth it!

Thing 2: The closest remaining performance is in Norfolk, VA, about 8hrs away from Boston. It is HOSTED BY ODOROUS URUNGUS OF FREAKING GWAR. My head explodes at the thought of such a perfect synergy of Wrong. It closes tomorrow. I have tentative plans for tomorrow, but am sorely tempted to either change said plans or attempt to combine them into Random Road Trip of Awesome.

Who would join me on this foolhardy venture?

Edit: Crap. Nevermind. I just realized that I can't get out of work on Monday, and driving there and back in time for work Monday am is... not gonna happen. Well, crap. =:( If anybody reading this is able to, do check it out if you can!

Another edit: Eeee. juldea just pointed out (after her comments below) that the performances are at 2:30p, so one COULD make it back in time to be sane on Monday... kinda? Argh. Decisions.

A mystery...

Someone left a curious anonymous comment in an oldish journal entry of mine, via an IP indicating a location near Irvine, CA, just to make things extra-weird. I am... intrigued. Not creeped, just... intrigued.

I must admit that I am having to resist the urge to contact Sequoia (note the comment's title) just to confirm that she is OK and not, in fact, on a drug-fuelled spree through southern California at the moment, 'cause if that's not it, I've got nothin.

Huh...
