Ye gods and little swirling Nemo fishies ...

Well, THIS has been an interesting experiment.

"Work is so dull, so lifeless, so uninspired," I mused to myself, "that why should I waste valuable WAKING time there when I can just Not Sleep and THEN go to work

And JUST whose fault is it that you stayed up until 1:30 AM (4:30, here, apparently) arguing with Crow? HMMMM??? This is the same thing I told her while she was shambling like a corpse across campus in a stupor all day and mumbling about 'damn smelly hippies' and the 'gummint'.

Ya'll made your bed! Now get no sleep in it! Hah!

:grumblin' grumbles:

Man, this "LOGIC" stuff is the kind of thing that leads to people going to sleep at human hours, and not staying up all night kibbitzing with people on the other side of the continent and then being a skinbag marionette for the next day and a half.

Where's th' fun in that?

You know what we were doing? SAVING THE WORLD.

That's right. We were laying out the plans to prevent the takeover of Earth by a cabal of Nazi-built diamond-armored cyborg wolfmen as aided and abetted by a secret society of hooded Inquisitors who have wormed their way into posts of power within the federal government and many major research institutions.

But, hey!

If you'd RATHER be torn apart by sturmwolves while Wagner blares from every radio on Earth simultaneously and a huge cross of nuclear fire fills the sky, be our guest!

Sheesh. You try to HELP somebody ...

I'm SAYIN'.

It ain't easy being a super-hero when all you get for it is SCORN and DERISION.

This must be what SPIDER-MAN feels like.

I wanted to tell you that your Halloween kicked my ass. Bravo. But mine was sorta unique. At 7:30 PM on Devil's Night (Oct.30) I left New Orleans and headed northwest. I drove through the night without stopping and, after experiencing some of the phasing in and out you described from work while driving at 75 mph, I slept sitting up for about 3 hours in a gas station parking lot at 5 AM before driving through Halloween into Kansas. The Day of the Dead was spent on the final leg to Grand Junction. It bodes ill. Not to mention the fact that my past travels have etched the infinity sign across this country, with Oklahoma City being the unavoidable nexus.

What do you think about a potentially massive throwdown around New Year's? Are you gonna be around? I'm sure I will be. It seems to be... inevitable.
Oh, and I figure I got my hair trimmed right about the same time you did. Strange.

Re: eery

I'd say that's properly surreal. Did you get any candy skulls?

Or, hell, any candy?

A massive throwdown seems ideal. I ain't doin' Jack nor Shit for Christmas or Thanksgiving this year, so a holiday with actual PLANS will be a lovely change of pace.

... wait, you got YOUR hair shorn, too?

Stop COPYIN' me!

[doctorcurare]

No candy. No costume. Only the distinct impression that ALL gas station convenience store owners are rather wary of people coming in with Halloween masks.

Hey, what can I say? You're just so damn original and unique that the legions of rabid fans that gather around you (whether you're aware of them or not... you know that feeling when the hairs on the back of your neck stand up?... that's them!) are forced to follow suit. Plus I needed a damn haircut.

That was beatiful ( not being sarcastic ) seriously... I mean "...constantly collapsing origami of blue stars." if this is what you write when you dont get anny sleep... then maybe you should sleep when your dead...
