09/06/2006: "I'm not the zombie I once was."

Not really sure what to say, just kinda rambling. Need to wake up bright and early tomorrow so I can get into my morning class and review a book about a Japanese soldier in the war-torn Phillipines that eventually winds up eating people prior to appointing himself to be a soldier of god's wrath ("Fires on the Plain"). Helpful note: do not read the second half of this book prior to eating meat. It just doesn't work out.

I want to watch a movie before I go to bed, though, but no idea what. It's not a very good idea, anyway, since I should go to bed reasonably soon. But I find it a nice breaker to do something I enjoy after homework and writing papers to at leasr feel like the day's over and I'm done with my work. Weird habit, sure, but it works out.

On a positive note, I really think I'm starting to get used to the new sleep schedule. Waking up in the middle of the night here and there, not sleeping the whole night, but I'm not a half-crazed zombie when I wake up anymore. I'm still one of the two (either half-crazed or a zombie, I don't know which), but not both. This is definitely an improvement.

Other new developments? I've been thoroughly sucked into both MySpace and Facebook. I'm not totally keen on obsessive social networking, but even I realize at a point that there are times where you just go along with what the group does because it makes your life markedly easier.

Anyway, that's it for now. I'm going to watch the rest of "Mythbusters" and then head off to sleep. More exciting times ahead, to be sure.
