I felt like using an obscure quote from a rather obscure song that actually got radio play this morning and made me smile. Gold star to the first person who guesses the name of the song.
Gods, so tired today and hurting in all kinds of interesting places (mostly waist down). I kinda wish I had one of those devices from "A Clockwork Orange" to keep my eyelids open while I attempt to be somewhat productive today.
Dance class was deadly last night, we had live musicians and they wanted to have a little fun and do really fast pieces. Alyne thought this was great and had us doing drum solo speed moves, locks, freezes, shimmies, etc. for most of the evening. I do think I'm starting to get "Tammerhanna", though, which is nice. Even reminded Alyne of one of the moves she'd forgotten. I have a very visual based memory and I can see when something's in the wrong place.
Aelf had a good night selling stuff at the swap meet, made quite a tidy sum. Then after class the musicians packed up and we turned to practicing the routines for the show tomorrow. If I hadn't totally flubbed the veil piece I'd have been pretty happy. Still I was TIRED by the time we got to that point, and ready to collapse by the time I left. Helped Aelf reload her car before zooming off home myself. I had enough energy left to feed the kitties, shower, get into my jammies and go to bed.
If Pye hadn't decided to play very noisily in the kitchen last night I probably would've gotten a good night's sleep. As it was I got about 6 1/2 or so. I've functioned on less, but not well. Tonight I get some housework done and run through all the routines in costume so I can short circuit any pitfalls that may threaten me tomorrow. And then I sleep, hopefully until at least 10 or so tomorrow morning.
I picked the wrong week to give up caffeine...

Hopefully, like the great writers, musicians and artists of our time a bit of morbidity will help me inspiration wise. I mean really, we wouldn't have the "Downward Spiral" without a bit of depression and self-loathing right?!
