March 31, 2009--A new dawn

Books I've borrowed for this week:
Untamed, PC and Kristin Cast
Dreams Made Flesh, Anne Bishop
Trickster's Choice, Tamora Piearce
Trickster's Queen, Tamora Piearce
Omnivore's Dilemma, Michael Pollan (revisiting this one)
Unaccustomed Earth, Jhumpa Lahiri
Kushiel's Scion, Jacqueline Carey

I barely slept again. I kind of passed out around 11:30pm and woke up around 2:30am and promptly played on my laptop since Mark so kindly ordered an internet connection for us once again, and I've been very deprived of the ease and convenience of internet-at-home for a LONG time. I know 5 months really isn't a long time, but for someone like me, it is. I paid all of my current bills, caught up on email, heck even updated my facebook and myspace pages. It's funny: I've revisited some of the comments that I left people on their FB walls, and realized that in hindsight, leaving comments pre-dawn seems to be the work of a crazy person. Oh well.
After my internet productivity, I was still wide awake (at 5:20am), so naturally, I hunkered down to finish Untamed, since I'd been reading snippets of that book while waiting for my coffee drinks to be completed at my local bookstore. I know I should probably look deeper into the root cause of my insomnia, but really, I'm all right with it, and since I was just following the rhythms of my body, would it not be right to say that I was just listening to what my body needed? Only logical, I think.
Well, I need to feel a little useful again since I am helping Mark transport his computer here after he gets home from work (imagine pulling in a full day's work starting at 5 or 6am--yikes!), so I should probably take a quick nap. I can't believe I've been awake for almost 12 hours (it's just turnng 2pm). Thank goodness for days off and late work days (I close tomorrow, woohoo!).
