I’ve spent the last week rapidly embracing (and falling I should say,) into what’s commonly called a polyphasic sleep cycle. This was not of my own doing, although I didn’t fight it, I let as much of my body control what was happening as possible, so as to not make the mental shift, uncomfortable.

It is, still, uncomfortable. I am, as I type this, going through in my own Generic Hell.

Overall, I managed a functional work day, (“work” as in construction/fabrication of 3-dimensional design projects/ceramics/weight-lifting and running *this hardly includes “social” anything because of not really having the energy to -be- social.*) I gained about 5 hours of solid production time on every day, maybe a little bit more, I’d have to go back and count hours. They were spread out throughout the day by waking up earlier and not going to bed as early, and also by working “set” hours in the middle of night and then going back to sleep.

Right now, I am supposed to be slowly inching myself back to a normal sleep cycle. I woke up my “other” usual time today, didn’t nap in the after noon, and am now writing this so I can finally set the rest of my work aside and go to bed.

The Task List For November!

• I will be guest blogging at omigod.net for Kyle (or by the grace of Kyle,) so stop over, show him some love, show omigod.net some love, and keep and eye out for me, I might be helping to bleed other’s eyes out with my very transcendental style writing (bad!)
• Thanksgiving is this month! And honestly, that’s a holiday I can get behind (if only because I -can- cook, and I love watching everyone else enjoy the things I make.) Family means something, and I relish the time I am able to spend with them all in the same room without things like work/stress/drama/ and illness all pressing in from their various sides. It’s something I know I’m personally looking forward to.
• A birthday we aren’t gong to talk about, because things will burst into flame, children will cry, and milk will spoil. Yes. Shhhh. Just don’t say anything. It really is that bad.
• Finals! Mostly, it’s the building up until finals themselves, but November is the worst month for academia. You swallow cups of “no, just no, do I have to? No! Please just make it, ahhhh, —No.” If I can get through my 3-d design final, I’m going to start looking for a winter job. That in itself is another story all together. I honestly just want to write and “build things” for a month. That, at this point, is my dream winter job. I might head up to the Pocono’s to do just that if inspired enough.
• Snow Boarding. I know, I’m too hopeful! Maybe, just maybe, there will be early snow fall. I’m wishing…no, hoping. I dream about the mountains at night. About the cold on my face, the sound the snow makes under the board, on the rail. Just need to find a little riding company this year to make it more amusing for me! This way my sister doesn’t have to do -all- the teaching (or “watching”) and I can maybe help someone learn something new in turn. Ah well!

So that’s it, something short, coherent, (I know disappointment here too, don’t worry, the ambiguity will be back I promise.) I’m going to keep updating my site here while I am blogging at omigod.net; it’s a feeling I have about the volume of ideas that’s been building behind me on the inside. It might be a good thing, having to be in two places at once.

It’s also technically Tuesday, November the 4th, 2008. So I feel a need to say this; Just Do It. JUST DO IT.
