So I know I've mentioned the insomnia recently (seeing as how I've barely posted, it'd have to have been the prior post), and the situation really hasn't changed much. Yesterday I worked until eight, and afterwards, I chatted with Ian for about an hour before giving up on consciousness and conking out. I woke up a few times, but finally around two, I got up since I was wide awake and couldn't bring myself to fall asleep again. I tried, mind you. I lay there for a full hour before coming into the living room. Part of me feels it's odd that it's now daytime, but then again, I can't say I'm all that surprised either. Regardless, I did get some stuff done last night (this morning?). I have the first two chapters of my romance novel typed up, and I've got some more notes jotted down on the same as well. At some point, I need to actually type up said notes, but for the moment, I'm leaning toward simply reading a while or possibly trying to pass out once more. One way or the other, I plan on wasting my first day off over my three-day weekend. It might even involve ice cream. :P At any rate, must get back to mindlessness. Well, wait, I may already be there.

At least the slap-happiness keeps work interesting. ;) I should go lie down, but I know I won't really be tired for another hour at least, and even then, I'll likely just lie there for a half an hour before a light doze takes me where anything will wake me in an instant and I'll be too
Paper [Writing]
Posted on: 2009-06-24 00:36:44[ More - Add comment ]I had this feeling. I had this strange sort of almost indescribable feeling, and so, of course, I had to try and write it down. That's generally how my mind best works when it comes to trying to determine what it is exactly that's going through my head. For some odd reason, the simple act of taking up a pen or putting fingers to keys makes the organization of thoughts much clearer, more
@#$%^ day [Rant]
Posted on: 2009-06-22 18:12:05[ More - 2 comments ]You know, I guess I can't exactly say today was shitty. I've been too out of my head to really even grasp half of what's going on so far. I guess that's just part of the problem. I've been dizzy almost all day, even weaving a bit when I walk and having to stop and lean on things just so the ground beneath me would stop trying to slide away. I gouged a sizeable chunk of skin from my

At some point today, I'll call and actually wish you a happy day in person, but uh, my phone died last night, so it's currently charging. ^_^ So to you and all other dads running around out there who may or may not pay any attention whatsoever to my rambly, crazy blog: Happy Father's Day!
Romance novel [Writing] [Books]
Posted on: 2009-06-20 15:22:30[ More - 2 comments ]As much as I'm rather loathe to admit it, I've decided to write a romance novel. Actually, this idea had come to me some time ago, but back then, the idea was just as much about writing a social commentary on the state of the USA as writing about two people meeting and falling in love. Now, the story has evolved and has ventured slightly further away from the scathing stab

Also, I have painted stick figures over the entrance to the restrooms so that patrons might have an easier time finding the facilities without asking us all the

Possibly Rook's favorite graduation present. :-)

It's hard to believe that he's graduating high school, isn't it? Well, it's true. Tonight, Rook matriculates. In addition to my little brother graduating tonight, my nephew on Ian's side, Jeff, is graduating as well. So congrats to the both of you!

It's sooooo much easier to get work done when we aren't having to stop and help patrons or answer the phone or fix the computers. Because the library was closed today, we got
