(no subject)
Sep. 7th, 2003 03:10 pmI'm getting more psyched about the trip to Atlanta. It'll be different having someone in the car with me- time will tell whether this will be a good thing or a bad thing. Because the Universe is a dick that way, it'll probably be a little of both.
Gordon came back! He was gone for a long time on vacation- over a month. I missed him. He's a fun guy to do stuff with, when you want to go do stuff with someone. And he's done admirably well, for the most extraverted person I know, about not taking it personally when I tell him 'don't wanna do stuff! Sod off!' He used to feel like I was blowing him off, but we talked about it enough that he realized I'm not off doing terribly fun things with people who are not Gordon when I say 'no', it means I just can't handle any more socialization that day for whatever reason. So now I think he sees me as handicapped, but that's okay.
I taught my Part 2 of Astrology to my Dedicants Friday. I love the subject so much, and was so glad to split it up (before it's been one class of the barest basics) that I think I piled too much on. They looked a little overwhelmed, and that's not a fun feeling. I'll need to scale back next time I teach it. Maybe people don't care about orbs. 8|
Yesterday was another flavor injection for Der Böltmei∫ter. He saw what was coming, and lived up to his name (he bölted). He also squirmed around after I stuck him, which popped the needle out and I had to run and get another needle. This sucks, but despite that I think we're getting better at it.
I've been being really thinky about stuff going on in my grove the past week or so. Combine this with the fact that I tend to wake up 2-3 times a night to whiz or whatever, and if I've been thinky, I will often not be able to get back to sleep after the time when I wake up which usually falls between 4-5:30am. This is extremely sucky. What's worse, I wasn't feeling particularly thinky yesterday and I woke up around 5am this morning and had a hell of a time getting back to sleep. I think my body was trying to get used to getting up at 5am. I don't think I'd be very happy with that, especially since I tend to go to sleep at midnight at the earliest on my days off. Stop that, body!
