Love Story

Now that NaNoWriMo has officially started, I don't think I will be posting here very much for the next month. However, given my remarkable talents for procrastinating, I could be posting daily.

I just managed to say absolutely nothing. Good JOB, me!

Anyhow, this is what I wanted to talk about. Yesterday I was resting my brain by looking up videos on Youtube, *coughcough* and I found two songs that have come out recently, both entitled "Love Story." I was rather struck by the difference between the definition of love depicted in the two videos. Not to mention the "romantic clothing," and the "happy ending."

Anyhow, here are the links. Taylor Swift vs. Katherine McPhee.

"Your body's going through some CHANGES right now..."

For reasons which seemed good at the time, I got up at four yesterday, and then ended up going to bed at 10. My immune system  and body have sent me a message regarding this activity. 

"Oh, Hello. We have an issue. You know how during all the so-called stress at College we kept you disgustingly healthy? You know how you didn't miss a class? That was dependant on you giving us time off; at least 7 hours of sleep a night. We don't mind when you take the time, just so long as you do. This "five hours" thing is stopping now. We mean it. To warn you, we're giving you a sore throat. Don't make us give you a cough,
Concerned Friends."

So, now I am resolved to try not to be TOO insane with the sleep deprivation thing. But, I think I figured out why I keep being drawn to the computer. I mean, aside from the fact that you can do fun things on it, like writing, and reading the news, and writing, and reading blogs, and writing, and reading facebook, and writing stories and writing code and writing blogs. *cough* *wide grin* Anyhow, for the past 8 months at College, I had a quite decent amount of work to do, most of it on the computer. So now in the back of my brain there's an idea that if I'm not reading or on the computer, I'm slacking. 

This is of course not strictly true now that I'm at home. And now that I've pinpointed this, I should be more reasonable about computer time. Maybe. 

In other news, Frauline is off to Town for the Home School Conference this weekend, so I'm in charge when Mommy and Daddy aren't here. And Gid spiked a fever last night, so he's been brought into the Gander hospital, an hour away, and Mommy and Daddy will be taking turns staying with him.

"Sugar is not good for you." "But it tastes so good!"

Well, I had something planned to say, but then I ate a lot of sugary things, and now my brain is gone.

As further proof of my insanity, I've agreed to participate in a thing called "Right here, Write now," (Or maybe it is "Write here, Right now." Hmmm) You write a thousand words a day for the month of February. Should be fun! Particularly cause Third World and Moon Unit are doing it with me. I thought to myself: Hey self! You have way too much free time, and you're way too social. You should do something to remedy that! So I came up with this plan. Pretty special, I though.

Moon Unit is presently phone counselling a friend, RM is off at a friend's house, and Third World has accompanied Em to Chapters. Pshaw! those people with money! Money is for noobes! (quote)

I really need to not eat that much sugar at a sitting. *cries* *falls asleep*

I have come to the conclusion that my life is pretty much devoid of ~drama~, which is much simpler, but cuts down on conversation topics.

My fabulous life in Microcosm! No really, it's called Twitter. Good train, you should get on.
