Got to bed an hour late (my fault - I got distracted on the 'net). Woke up at 4 am with a sinus headache that needed medicine to get rid of, fell asleep again sometime after that, woke up at 6:10...the second time the alarm went off...having utterly missed the first.

Oh, yeah, today will be interesting. We'll see how long I last, this evening. :P

Because I'm easily amused, I fear...the meme on top commenters to my journal:

I survived today. In spite of not having slept well, enough, or straight thru the night. Actually, I more than survived today, it was pretty good. I was not at my most productive at work, but I got everything important done, and a few things that weren't critical. (I have a couple important tasks on my to-do list still, but they're all pending input from other people, pending a particular time, etc.).

I expected to fall over with a case of 'flat' when I got home, but actually, I've made it through the evening. Not my most productive evening, but far from the least, either. I had a couple character approvals pending and a lot of setting that up is busy-work. And a few other jobs on the mush that were really fairly easy to get done, so I did. Nothing earth-shattering, just several simple things that actually happened. No roleplay: that requires more creative energy than I had left.

Chatted with friends, and spent some time reading journals and blogs, including two that are new to me and that I quite liked, enough to syndicate them over here. They are both by the same author, actually. They would be:

[livejournal.com profile] prose_and_cons - this first caught my eye where it was linked by [livejournal.com profile] mindfullife for a recent post. It was funny - and another recent post really caught my eye as well. This is an illustrated blog, there are photos here, but there's also a goodly lot of writing, much of it very fun to read. This seems to be the lighter/more random side of life, easily marked by its tag of "A deficit of attention is not necessarily a disorder."

[livejournal.com profile] mybodymyblood is tagged "An unholy communion with one woman's temple." I'm not sure I'd say it lives up to that. :) Like the other, there are some photographs and a lot of words here. This seems more dedicated to memories, as I read it, things that evoke the past and bring it into the present. It is often sentimental or touching, but that doesn't keep it from being funny when appropriate.

I don't know either of these well, yet, but what I've seen makes me want to read more. The writing is pretty darned good, very good at drawing you in. She doesn't mince words when they're needed, or avoid touchy topics much, so some people might not care to read them - but neither do I get any sense of anything being written for shock value.

And on that note, in the interests of tomorrow morning maybe being better than this morning for awakenings, good night!
