I am way too sleepy for 6:30 in the evening.
Attempting to fix my sleep schedule is hard. I'm really sick of falling asleep in the early/mid morning, and waking up in the early evening, so I'm trying to stay up until it's a reasonable time to fall asleep. I don't know how successful I'll be, since I'm really tired, but hopefully I can find sufficient things to distract me for the next few hours.
My brain is pretty much fried, so I have nothing much to say (as often seems to occur during NaBloPoMo), but I would be remiss if I didn't commemorate today's incredibly geeky anniversary. It's the 55th anniversary of the day Doctor Emmett Brown came up with the idea for the flux capacitor, which we all know is what makes time travel possible. I'm very sad I don't have the brain power to watch the movie right now, although I did see it in the theater a couple of weeks ago, which was amazing. Watching Back to the Future with an audience full of fans, some of who (like me) were seeing it on the big screen for the first time, and some who had brought their tiny children to experience it for the first time, period, was a wonderful experience. People quoting lines, and cheering at the best parts. I would do that again in a heartbeat.
Ah, hell, I think I will put the DVD in and attempt to watch it. I'll be out at Burn the Floor on November 12th, so I can't be the biggest nerd ever and watch the movie on the date and at the time of the anniversary of the famous Hill Valley lightning storm. So, this will have to make up for that!

For any My Chemical Romance fans who don't know, they're giving away a new track from their upcoming album for free on their website. This brings the total of leaked/released tracks to five (although one of them is a B-Side, but still)! I appreciate this whole giving-us-a-taste-of-the-new-album-before-it's-released strategy a lot, boys! November 22nd can't come fast enough. ♥

On a totally unrelated note, does anyone have any recs for a good in-browser Twitter client? Echofon seems to have crapped out, and I really hate having Twitter open in a tab all the time.
