I'm dangerous when I'm caffeinated.
I've been on a coffee kick lately, and today it reached new levels of caffeination. Two travel mugs full of coffee goodness at work -- including quite a few little packets of fake sugar -- and tonight (for dinner), 1/3 of an expresso brownie (complete with chunks of expresso beans) and a venti (i.e., large) iced caramel mocha. Which was downed sometime between 8 and 9 p.m. It didn't exactly kick in until 10ish, though, when I began hanging up the ridiculously large pile of clothes at the end of my bed, and then moved on to cleaning my bathroom. The bathroom cleaning took place from roughly 11 p.m. until just now... and it's not completely finished, but the fumes from the bathroom spray -- combined with the Windex and the Draino -- were beginning to make me woozy, so I thought it best to give it a break until tomorrow.
Tonight also included a 30-minute power walk along the river, 20 minutes in the tanning bed (during which I fell asleep, which I never do), a quick Netflix drop-off at the post office, a shopping venture at Paperphanalia for Easter cards, a shopping venture at Borders for the Justin Details mag (which resulted in the purchase of 2 copies of the mag, the Stranger Than Fiction DVD, and the book East of Eden), a stop in Starbucks (to obtain the aforementioned caffeine), and an unplanned online shopping venture for an Easter dress (positive thoughts it comes in time for Easter and actually looks cute!).
While I didn't accomplish anything that was on my to-do list of Important Things, I'd say it was a fairly productive night.
It is now 12:28 a.m. and I am still wide awake. I don't want to start another cleaning project, so I guess I'll curl up in bed with my current book of choice (Good Omens) and hopefully sleep will find me before the Friday morning alarm clock does.
