– The last several days have been surreal. I’m still trying to pin down addresses for wedding invites, and there’s only a few left, but they’re the really hard ones. I’m not gaining much ground. Between wedding, grad school, getting the new website up to speed, and struggling to absorb the new Smashing Pumpkins Billy Corgan album, I’ve kind of had my hands full. Plus, things have been unexpectedly busy at work, which is good, because I log more hours. This might be the first week this month that I’ll make it to forty hours. The upshot of all this is that, while I’m not dizzy stressed out, while things aren’t so frantic that I’m miserable, the work is persistant enough that I’ve gotten next to no sleep and was neglecting to drink enough water. Yesterday, when I tried (unsuccesfully) to rendezvous with Sky and Sam for a techno event in Grant Park, I got really weird. I ended up catching the train home and falling asleep on the couch for two hours. Later, I got another six hours. I’m still tired and dried out now.
– But it hasn’t been a bad week. Just that sort of week.
– There’s a cold front moving in from Canada, but it’s being held off by smear of hot air that sweeps up from the southern plains. Where these two collide, in a line, incidentally, that falls over both Flint and Chicago, there could be spectacular storms. But until then, high in the nineties.
