Dear Self,



Look, I know we don't have a day job to get up for at the moment. However, that doesn't mean staying awake until 3AM or so every night is a good plan. No, it's not. Yes, I know our natural body clock is nocturnal, but keeping a semi-normal sleeping schedule is important. So tonight, howsabout we try to fall asleep before 2AM? Can we do that?

Oh, yeah, and that "we don't have a day job to get up for at the moment" bit? Couldn't we just skip the mild depression and feeling invisible stuff our subconscious likes to dump on us every time we're between jobs? Please? There's no need for it, and I'd rather not feel down, like I don't exist, and irritable, especially during the holiday season. Plus I need to concentrate on some ritual work and Talks With The Universe, and it's hard to get in a good headspace for that when I'm suffering bouts of ennui and angst. So just stop already.



With much love and a small amount of exasperation,

Princess Moonbeam

I don't know why bodies demand we be nocternal. Working at home I know what you mean as last night I went to bed at 6am. As soon as I can get back to normal hours the cycle starts all over again.
Hope you find your good headspace.

I think you've got the late autumn funk, along with me and a whole bunch of other people. Does making more corsets count as "ritual work"?

Let me know if you'd like to get together and make crafty things sometime during the day. :) Crafty things always seem to help me get out of a funk.

That post sounds like something I could have written a couple of months ago, and still on the days I don't have work or school and Dave is not here, I look up and can't figure out why it is 4am and I am stills sitting at the computer.

Talks With The Universe are infinitely better than Bitch-Slappings Of The Universe, but there are days....

I'm sorry for the freakish sleep problem.

Does verification of the Hot House thing on the 27th make you happier?

I just called and its ours. I'm dropping off the deposit tonight.

I could call and bug you in the afternoons and say hi and stuff. ;)

on top of the general amount I think of you each day as a matter of course, I am thinking of you about 50 times as much this week while I am working on The Art, for the one thing sitting on that same desk (within easy range) is your iPod case in progress. We found some adorable fixings for it at the hardware store (after some profound bits of searching) and it is on pause while I focus on the money making thing so I can pay the rent (it's an EXTRA tight month, and I am really praying that Jeremy will be able to pay me right away ack).

In case you haven't seen it, I have a second interview next wednesday. EEEEEEEEE

How about meat, throwing big, spherical objects at wayward pins, and drinking Black Russians until your uppity hubby says "Oy! That's 'nuff lick-er down 'er throat, ya gits!" ?

In short, bowling/booze. Si?

it could be worse - you could be waking up at every morning at about three thirty or four am no matter what time you have to be to work

I'm so sorry you're having troubles with this. Weaselmom has to deal with it all the time, too; perhaps she'll have some solutions (excluding the whole "half a red one and two pink ones" kind of solution).

And I'm sorry to hear about the personal down-ishness. Work has special meaning for us, how we value ourselves, far beyond any reasoning reason for us to feel that way.

Hugs,
Chris
