Okay, the sleeping-badly situation is getting out of hand. All the waking up again and again during the night has got to stop. Jared suggested I try taking melatonin, which can reset circadian rhythms, and at this point it can't hurt to give it a shot. And that is the last thing I'm going to say on my sleep issues for a good long while, as I'm sure ( Read more... )

After over a week of exhaustion and stress, I feel particularly lousy today. There is a low-grade headache in the top right side of my head that isn't as bad as it was last night, but still hasn't gone away even after a night's sleep.

I spent last night helping Jared work out the writing of his thesis. The first half was due today, and he used me ( Read more... )

On Friday night I helped captainecchi and electric_d_monk run the fantastic League of Extraordinary Hogwarts Students. I loved playing this game, and I only wish I'd had time to study everything more carefully. I read all the character sheets and the rules, but  I still wasn't quite familiar with the inner workings of the game to be all that useful as a GM. I mostly got ( Read more... )

Finally Kindness's long-awaited post-bac show has come to fruition. We did our performance in front of his magnificent and meticulously-constructed environment involving suspended tree branches, flowers, nails, hooks, domestic items, and various accoutrements reflecting the life of a little girl. i think he was pleased with it; I had fun doing it, ( Read more... )

It's a rainy old day. Sigh. I dislike bad weather in general, especially on days when I have a fair bit of driving to do, and it's looking like it's going to last all day.

I have a number of errands to run today. I'm trying to get together with bronzite for lunch since I haven't seen him in a while. Then I must hit Main Street to deposit a check and mail ( Read more... )

Kind of a zombie this morning. Not sure why. Yeah, yeah, tech week and all, but I've been leaving before 1AM each night, and I even got about a three-hour nap yesterday. I've been tired a lot lately, even though I've been mostly getting enough sleep, and I am dismayed at the dark circles under my eyes. :-P I don't feel sick or anything otherwise, ( Read more... )

Wow. What a con.

Back from Intercon now and back to the grind of regular life. I am happy, exhausted, and very thoughtful.

( Shadow Over Babylon on Friday night )

Friday night saw the closing performance of To Think of Nothing. Jared's and my parents came to see it-- I was also delighted to see emp42ress and ultimatepsi made it, so sweet of them --and it was flawless. I was so proud, and my dear ones were proud of me. Afterward, because they wanted it so badly, we did a naked tech run. Now, to say this was superfluous is ( Read more... )

Resting at home now. Got off of work, drank some orange juice, took some Advil, and slept for a few hours, which gave me the strength to get some necessary errands done. I plan to take it easy for the rest of the evening.

I have a few more items still on my to do list, but even though I have some actual free time tonight, I think I'm going to just ( Read more... )

I am so weird sometimes. When I woke up this morning, I very firmly resisted opening my eyes and declared to myself, "I Am Sleeping In Today." I don't know if I totally went back to sleep, but I rolled over and burrowed down in my covers and laid there for a nice long while. When it became too difficult to resist being awake, I reached for my phone ( Read more... )
