Interesting.

Got home from school yesterday around 3 and put some laundry in, and then I thought "Oh, phew, essay turned in, Spanish test taken; today I can take some time to replace all the dead overhead light bulbs in the house." Went through and turned on/off lights in every room, noting which ones were burned out. I'd been keeping a shortened sleeping schedule for the past few days due to midterms and papers, so I decided to take a brief nap before embarking on project. I lit some nice, soothing candles and laid down around 4pm for a "rest my eyes" period of time.

Woke up at noon today. Yeah. Note to self - Alarms. Good things. Help us accomplish goals. Help us not leave wet clothes in the washer for 20 hours. Help us not leave nice autumn-y cinnamon apple candles burning in our bedrooms FOR 20 HOURS WHILE WE SLEEP OMG. I vaguely remember Artemis climbing up on my back and making "prrt?" sounds and licking my bare shoulder as if to say "Please wake up; I am very hungry and this ongoing sleeping is *not like you*." (I felt very guilty when I woke up, so I gave her extra Fancy Feast. She is now in my lap, purring away. Mission accomplished.)

Goals:

Eat.
Shower.
Vote.
Estudio español! Olé!
Go to P&J's house for "OMG ack can't stand it must watch Daily Show Midterm Midtacular with friends and alcohol" party.
Go to bed at a decent hour and sleep a *normal amount of time tonight.*
Regain regular schedule tomorrow.

And to paraphrase a boyband song:

I don't care who you are,
what you think,
even if I despise your politics
IT IS YOUR CIVIL DUTY TO VOTE.

Okay, that really didn't scan there, towards the end.

VOTE, AMERICANS. Just fucking vote, okay?

(And I promise from now on all political posts will be made over at politzikes. Which I will test soon. (Grad School - the great LiveJournal Interferer.)
