There is nothing 2:00 am snack-worthy in my kitchen. Damn.

I have no idea why I stayed at work so late tonight. I look at the clock and it's 10:00. Look again and it's 1:00. Huh? I was not even aware of the passing of time. Happens sometimes while driving, complete autopilot, suddenly I've just gone 5 miles while blinking.
Very unnerving.

It must be the ipod. When you've got earphones on and no one to bother you, time flies when you're a one woman vaudeville act. I must give the security and maintenance people quite a show. If this were a musical (or an episode of Scrubs) we'd be twirling across the tile, reflections in the plate glass windows, or maybe a disco ball or some black lights would drop from the ceiling, nightclub style.

Perhaps my imagination is a little too active? Eh, always has been. I remember a kid in junior high accusing me of daydreaming too much. As if he was personally offended that Earth Science did not hold my attention, and that I chose to ignore the antics of my fellow classmates.

With the offerings on tv this late at night, a good imagination is in order. Although Secretary is on; edited for tv, but still excellent. The score is so deceptively gentle yet decidedly eerie, the performances almost entrancing. I really should own at least the soundtrack.
And watch more James Spader movies.

What do you have against Earth Science?

Geology is fundamental!

Did you find your 8th grade science text that enthralling? Sadly, my teacher and text were less interesting than counting the number of plaid squares in the flannel of the shirt in front of me.

I know what you mean about time flying. I was up last night playing on the computer and when I looked at the clock it was three a.m. I couldn't believe it. I can't keep staying up like this. Weird thing is, I still wake up at nine a.m. It's crazy.

She is so hot... in a very non-typical way. I wonder if she wants to come to the party this weekend... I'd bet she does. :)

Yeah, she's got the atypical hot thing going on, definitely.
So much fun to just watch her!
