epologue to the strange music

[derien]

Apparently the guy (not the kid, who is the guy's girlfriend's) upstairs has a Mac which decided to take initiative at 4:30 this morning. It brought up iTunes and started a random shuffle for no apparent reason. He sent email, apologizing, around 8:20. :)

I was not actually able to get more solid sleep, but sort of drifted in and out. I couldn't get warm without Eor. Probably I should have walked in the treadmill for a few minutes to warm up before trying to sleep, I don't know. I'll keep that in mind for next time. But I got a hot bath, cleared some papers off my desk, got the laundry dried and put away - I felt like the morning was not a total loss. Also read Chapter 12 of random-nexus's 'Holmesian Dream Fic,' "Missing". (and yes, that is a link to CH 12, but she links all previous chapters at the top.) I'm liking that a lot!

Even after I got to work, though, I was really dragging. I'd had a pot of tea, but it took a double-shot latte to set me up so that I could work properly. After that I finally got my stride. I don't know, it's not like I missed out on that much sleep. I think tomorrow I'll try to just go with the treadmill and not attempt to sleep more. But I'm NOT quitting caffeine any time soon!

Awwww, you mentioned my stuffs! *happy pants dance* How nice of you!

Sorry for your interrupted sleeps - can be a large bum-pain!
I, too, am a caffeine addict. Coffee and chocolate are my two drugs of choice. *hand over heart* I love them so!

;D

Ugh, tell me about it! Some of my housemates had friends around last night and they were all in the room next door, smoking weed (persumably) and going "HUHHUHHUHUHUUH!!" in really annoying stoned voices. At least they weren't playing their "grime" I suppose. I'm too long in the tooth to have to be putting up with grime music. I don't normally mind their antics. I'm sure I was as bad when I was their age. But why can't they hang around downstairs in the sitting room like normal people? Instead they all squeeze into a tiny box room. It sounded like there were at least four of them in there last night, and the room looks barely big enough for one person to walk into!

Whooo, ranty. sorry.
