separate the world
For various reasons all of which could be summarized with the phrase "my own fault," the longest stretch of sleep I'd had in the last four days was four hours, and the average was like two and a half. So last night, zombiefied, I laid down around 6:00pm and almost fell asleep. Realizing I hadn't eaten since that morning, I went and got some super-healthy fast food, ate it, and laid back down. I managed to stay awake watching DVDs until about 9:00. At that point I was out, and when I woke up and had no idea if it was day or night (it was 9:00am), I decided why stop now? I had no need to start the day early! It's now 1:30pm, I've been awake just about an hour, and yes, I feel rested, though slow-brained. Oversleep does that.
In 20 minutes Debi's coming over so we can really discuss things (yesterday's meeting postponed), and after that I've had two offers to hang out with friends I never see socially anymore. Great, but honestly, I was sort of hoping to be more productive over the last 48 hours than I have been.
I have way too much to do to be this unmotivated and lazy. But every time I get past a major deadline (shooting Bathwater, the OAC grant, the fundraiser, etc.) I just sort of... mentally hibernate. Sometimes (as Thursday proves) this can lead to a nice time to get some writing work done, but as for real work, the brain is just unwilling.
Get with it, brain! You and I need to have a serious sit-down meeting and discuss some things. The world doesn't work like that.
