Gotta love insomnia
I couldn't sleep. :( Got my ass kicked in dance class today, which made me feel like a fat hippo. Work is pretty crazy busy to the point of overwhelming these days - in addition to my regular webwork, I'm chipping in on neverending requests for UI art/layout for the Champions Online MMO and related sekrit projects. I'm also sad that there aren't enough hours in a day to do everything I want to do, which range from running a half marathon to going back to my illustration roots.
I try to unwind after work and go to sleep on time, but my mind refuses cease assaulting me with three things: (1) You are a fat hippo and (2) constantly trying to come up with pretty UI art ideas that makes everyone happy and (3) SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK GET UP AND DO THINGS OMG
It's frustrating because (1) I know i'm not a fat hippo and (2) I had a dream about my boss, which tells me I am thinking WAY too much about work and (3) I need my sleep.
But regardless, the sandman definitely left me out of his rounds tonight.
So I opened up Fidelity.com and Google.com and went to town for a couple of hours.
1:00 AM - Noob
1:30 AM - learning to navigate Fidelity.com
2:00 AM - Surfing blogs, google and Fidelity database
2:30 AM - Researching mutual funds
4:00 AM - Retirement plan made, hypothetical portfolio created, watch list for various funds created, strategy/contribution devised
(Would have invested by 4AM, but I have a pathetic amount of money in my personal IRA, which is nothing but a paltry rollover from my old job's 401K. Money Market it is!)
Next on the list, attacking and optimizing my work 401K! Got some major investment booboos to fix!
.....Sleep time. -_-
Gotta love insomnia sometimes! (Not really).
