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...

Dang, you're good, or did you cheat and look that one up? ;)

There's a few CDs that I've listened to an awful lot over the last, gah, almost 20 years (I bought my first CD player in 1987). Sgt. Peppers was one of them. I did check Amazon to make sure that the song name was right (it was).

I can also probably recite Hair and anything by Pink Floyd (<1985) line for line. Sometimes, I'm a big freak (in that good way).

Why it's the Beatles of course. It took me a minute though...I had to kind of sing the lyrics outloud to figure it out. Geesh I can't remember the last time I listened to the radio.

You'll have to share your gold star I'm afraid :)

Well at least I got a gold star...now if I can just write a paper worthy of one! Shakes head in mild disgust!

I have complete faith in you, particularly as you've already gotten at least one with a "merit", yes? And I can now report to mom that you're not slipping on your Beatles song knowledge either.

Thanks for the vote of confidence although I must admit my less than glowing marks (which I am not in the least accustomed to!) have made me question the sanity of choosing academia as a future option.

Funny how quickly you can lose your passion and self-confidence when you learn that your writing (the one thing you have going for you) is mediocre...blah. In the midst of my blue funk I am trying desperately to write a paper for my Victorian Art class.

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?!
