So, I know, I know...I'm always whining about work and time...but this time (HA!) it's with pretty decent reason.

You see, I've discovered that I have to sleep...sometime...and due to having to go to work and not being able to really call in sleep, I'm tired, *and* behind on some of everything...

I have a project that I've been wanting to, needing to, immensely desiring to finish for Liz's mag, and it's going to get done last minute. Because I have to go to work tomorrow.

Bri and Janelle's wedding left me far more wrung out than I'd expected (not to mention not getting more than 18 hours sleep in 5 days time) and then getting up early on Sunday kinda fugged up my sleep schedule. And, it would seem much of my ability to think.

I didn't get the full transcription of this interview done until last eve at 2 in the morning (Mom nicely showed me the correct headphones at 1 am, which made the whole thing suddenly much easier to do...dammit...) and my writing skills have much deteriorated since working this job...and now that I'm in the groove, I really REALLY need to go to sleep so I don't start nodding off at the wheel like this evening on the way home (SCARY!).

I swear, I don't know how I've been making it to work or home lately...I've been working through much of lunch this last week, so I've not even gotten to nap, so I do so when I get home and that, of course, just screws everything up...

So here I am, not being able to do much more than ramble (hence the post), and I'm not done yet turning a 7000 interview into a 2-3000 word article, and it's 1 in the morning, and my brain hurts, and I have to go to the evil work tomorrow, and of course (those of you that know and love me) know that I do most of my writing in the wee hours of the morning, and jam through the rest of the day on Mountain Dew and Adrenaline...unfortunately I have to drive to work (see last paragraph) and work has been so boring of late (busy, but boring) that it's all I can do not to pass out on the phone...

Where was I? Oh yes, bitching...

I'm just waiting for [livejournal.com profile] redhound and [livejournal.com profile] jendavis77's wedding on baited breath. Besides the joy of it all (really, I really really really mean this!), I'm taking some time off around it, so, you know...mini-vacation.

And then I'm worried about [livejournal.com profile] wildpaletz and all...I want her to be all good and better, and employed.

...and my credit is ganked again thanks to wedding whosits whatsits with B&J...kinda threw stuff off...but I'll survive, but it just means that my fiscal plan of self preservation is outta skew for a couple of months...

...and I keep thinking about S.S., one of Janelle's bride's maids who I've met a couple of times...we danced a little bit, and talked, and now she's stuck in my head, and I don't know if that's a good or bad thing, but it's distracting, and worrisome, and really nice at the same time...

...and if I didn't need to sleep now, or work tomorrow, I would so be finishing this thing tonight...but I can't avoid sleep, and can't call in sick tomorrow, and tomorrow (read today) is May 1 all day long, right? Right?

Liz, hon, if you're reading this, I'll have an email to you by the end of "The Day"...you know...before Midnight...

Egads, I need a new bag baby...I need a new bag...
