feeling entirely overextended. saying a big old "fuck you" to almost everything/everyone. so no, I am not planning to dance tonight, unless you would like me to bite your ear off in close embrace.

also, last night I dreamt of lots of tornadoes in Portland. I wasn't afraid of my immediate safety, just had a sense of urgency about whether I would be able to get to my parents' house, which was in the southern portion of the city.

I love being busy. I hate being busy with packing and moving, two of my least favorite activities. Yesterday I purged almost a third of my possessions in a garage sale, stripping my book collection to its barest amount (only two boxes now!)

friday night: crazy shift on hotline, extremely interrupted sleep sched
saturday night: DJing at a blues party, ended up staying until 4am because B and I battled songs for an hour (so worth it).
sunday night: sleep schedule already so screwy, I'm barely tired at 3.

argh argh argh.

I can't help but be filled with a sense of foreboding.

My first case of insomnia! After waking up at 7pm yesterday, I still haven't gone to bed.
