Now I have some inkling how people suffering from ALS feel… my body is exhausted from riding my bike to work yesterday and today, but my mind is still spinning its wheels full tilt!
[Now before you go off on my for minimizing ALS, let me remind you that A) I said “inkling”, and B) you need to get a life if my statement upset you. Now fuck off and let me get on with things!]
So I’m trying to be productive now… lying in bed trying to sleep didn’t work… but part of me is still too exhausted… and another part is not exhausted enough to vegetate in front of the TV. What a dilema!
This mood probably started this evening around 7:10 pm. I was sitting in my living room, finishing up my dinner, and watching a bit of tube, trying to decide what I was going to do– I’ve got an issue of The Zero Card to put together– when BAM! the power went off. Now I should have twigged earlier when noticed the Hydro trucks up the street as I rode by and all the digital clocks flashing I got home… But like I said I was tired, and putting one and one and one together was not in my brain at the time.
So I lit some candles, and started to work on my article for The Zero Card. But I’ve gotten so accustomed to writing with some tunes in the background that I couldn’t concentrate with all that silence. Don’t get me wrong, I really like silence. I just have to be in the right mood for it, and at the time I wasn’t.
The power finally came back on about an hour or two later. By that time, I no longer felt like doing anything… anyway, to make a long boring evening shorter, here I am.
