I Attack the Darkness!
 by Fëanor

If I don't get much sleep, I find that the next day I tend to get a kind of burst of manic energy in the morning. During this time, I feel great and I can get a lot of stuff done.

So this morning I was packing all the garbage up and taking it out; I remembered to mail a bill; I was doing great. I came into work and plowed right into my next project with a full head of steam.

Of course, some time around the afternoon on days like this, my body suddenly realizes that I'm running on empty, and crashes big time.

Well, I'm in the valley of that crash right now. Someone pull me out, please!

So tired. Feeling disoriented, confused, and stupid.

Also, I really want my Player's Handbook. I want a better THAC0. And I want to roll some dice. You know, 3d8 worth of damage on a troll, or a saving throw vs. poison. Something like that.

Is this normal?

Don't answer that.

I'm also feeling strongly like I should give Baldur's Gate II another try.

Anyway, at least the tide of things that I have to do has calmed a bit. I can't believe the year is almost over already, though. Maybe I'll try to go on an all night bender soon and finish up all those damn movie reviews I never did from the festival.

Yeah, that's what I do on all night benders--I write stuff.

But not tonight, though. Tonight, sleep.
