Kristen, why are you awake?
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Seriously! God, this week, are all of us going to be awake at the same time, twiddling our thumbs?

Well, at least we'll have plenty of alcohol.

There's an Israeli story about the green village, in which everything was green: green houses, green cars, green toads, green people. And one day, a green person got out of his green house, went inside his green car, and on his drive along the green road, while humming a green song, he saw a blue man. And the blue man said "me? I'm from a different story altogether".
That's how I feel when I have to think about timezones and who-should-be-awake-when and people just getting up when I finish my lunch. I'm the blue man from the different story. In the most interesting way possible, of course. I wouldn't know how to visit the green world any other way.

Kat, I know! Why are we awake? At least (I think that) you and I have gotten some sleep, and are just up way too early) while I suspect Kristen is still awake.

I did get sleep. About 8 hours. I was profoundly headachy yesterday after a full day of class with 2 presentations that I was only moderately prepared for (after a full work week, including 1 14 hour day). So I went to bed early and am up early. But Kristen? Yes concerned.

I got some sleep! I went to bed at 10 and woke up at 1 and couldn't fall back to sleep.
I cannot seem to break this cycle. I might have to try the Elvis Method.

It sucks, doesn't it, Kristen. I got an extra hour or so, since I was asleep before midnight and didn't wake up until 4:00, but I need more.
