Mmm. I'm almost starting to like waking up earlier than noon.
I got up at 9:30, after waking up at 9, spent the next hour or so getting dressed, brushing hair and teeth and what not, being generally slow and lazy about everything, but thurow. Then I went out, went to Stapples, bought an electric tea kettle along with some other stuff, and then came to Rampway.
I spent 30 minutes stringing cable through the cealing, finding all sorts of nifty stuff, from a hard hat to an air grate, all just randomly left above our hanging cealing. Lovely. But I now have a net connection that isnt in everyones way, and wolnt get tripped on.
The only problem with having woken up early is that I am now hungry, even though I dont usually eat until 4ish. So, I'm making tea, and hopefully that will qell the beast of hunger.
I'm finding I'm now spending allot of time wondering what to do, and kinda just sitting boredly. Idle minds and hands, as they say, are the devil's playthings. I suppose I will find something to do.

Tired tired. As I said, I went to sleep fairly early last night, about 1:30ish or so. But for some reason, I slept until 11. You can do the math. Yes, thats 9 and a half hours. Problem is, I didnt sleep all of that time. At about 2:30 something woke me up, and I went back to sleep shortly after (maybe 20 minutes awake total) and then at 7:00, again something wakes me, I get up, get something to drink, drink it, and go back to bed (maybe 35-40 minutes awake). So, I really did manage about 8 hours of sleep, it was just highly interupted. Yet still, I am tired.
I'm hopefully going to get to sleep much earlier tonight. I'm aiming for going to bed at about 11, and being asleep before midnight. I probably wolnt be, but it will be worth a shot. Sad really, that all I can think about is going back to sleep even though I've only been awake for barely 3 hours. Fortunately, food soon, so that will help a bit. What is not helping is how bloody cold my office is. *sighs*
Oh yes, I didn't mention this yesterday, but I should. My beloved just started his new job at CompUSA yesterday, and is now working a full time 9-5 shift. That is why I am trying to move my hours around, so I am awake at the same time he is. Its lonely not being able to talk to him as much as usual, but I'm glad he got the job. Very glad. And I know he will do well at it.
Now, if I can just stay awake....
Peter Gabriel - [The Nest That Sailed The Sky] So now I head off to bed. Early, but later than last night. I am trying for an earlier schedule, but I ended up sleeping far too much last night. I've been working on my web site, starting a design from scratch once again. Hopefully this time it will be better off than the previous one in terms of flexability.
Peter Gabriel - [The Tower That Ate People] Nature has an odd sense of humor. It had just started to get cold, and now its warm again. What happend to fall? Who knows. More tomorrow, or more correctly later today. I sleep now.

The first autopsy in the New World is performed in 1533 on a pair of conjoined twin sisters in Santo Domingo. According to the book, Twins: Nature's Amazing Mystery, it is conducted at the request of a priest who had baptized both children but wished to determine as to whether one or two souls were involved.

Sometimes... I love the church.

You are Form 0, Phoenix: The Eternal.

"And The Phoenix's cycle had reached
zenith, so he consumed himself in fire. He
emerged from his own ashes, to be forever
immortal."


Some examples of the Phoenix Form are Quetzalcoatl
(Aztec), Shiva (Indian), and Ra-Atum
(Egyptian).
The Phoenix is associated with the concept of life,
the number 0, and the element of fire.
His sign is the eclipsed sun.

As a member of Form 0, you are a determined
individual. You tend to keep your sense of
optomism, even through tough times and have a
positive outlook on most situations. You have
a way of looking at going through life as a
journey that you can constantly learn from.
Phoenixes are the best friends to have because
they cheer people up easily.
