Out Of My Tree

Today was a weird day.  I got two emails from people I used to work with, an email from an old old old friend who I hadn’t heard from for (horrible moment of realising time is running away) about 10 years and three friend requests on Facebook from people I sort of vaguely remember in a not really way.  I mean the names are familiar but the photos are not.  That kind of thing.

I did the day backwards too.  I was awake until 6:30 ish and then asleep until 1pm, awake until 2:30pm and the asleep until 9pm.  Now, of course I am wide awake and full of beans.  Well, not quite full but there is certainly a sort of washed out red bull-ishness about me.

One thing that was very odd for me was the waking at 9pm, reaching over for my MacBook and it not being there.  I had taken it downstairs with the full intention of doing some work on it and then… not.  I sat down with a yoghurt and watched a little news which turned into the Gilmore Girls (first day at Yale!) and then I got a little depressed and couldn’t be bothered.  What is it about that show that makes you want to live everything again?!

I had a whole flashback to my first day at uni.  The packing up everything I owned because I had watched far too many American shows about going to college and so took far too much stuff and then slowly took things back home at Reading week and holidays.  The being totally unemotional about leaving my parents until they left and I was all alone… until my room mate arrived with her double bass (called Kermit because it was in a big green case) which took up so much room it was ridiculous and then meeting everyone else before discovering the Student Union was so much closer than we thought it was and all going over there for drinking ahoy! Sigh…

Anyway after that and dozing in the chair I got sent to bed and stayed there.  Yes, this blog is becoming an indepth look at how muh I do and don’t sleep a the moment.  I am sorry for that.

I have BIG intentions of catching up on blog reading tomorrow.  BIG INTENTIONS.As well as huge intentions of sorting out the look of the blog. So, if you have trouble seeing it tomorrow please let me know. Email me at bec at this website’s URL.
