Stayed up late last night watching and geeking about Supernatural with virtualschmelz and Surly. Got some good, solid sleep--so solid that i didn't know the cat was standing on me until she stuck her nose into my eye--and then woke to a piece on NPR about Second LifeToday's plans include seeing people and watching the IU-O.
