I spent the weekend not sleeping, then freaking [livejournal.com profile] atraxia out with my inability to stay still and watch Hot Fuzz (in my defense, dirty dishes in a clean sink and otherwise neat apartment sorta weird me out), then sleeping through Sunday (3PM - 1AM). I have no idea what's up, but it's a little disconcerting.

There's *another* conference in Vegas at the end of March. I'm pondering whether I should go or not. If I do end up going, I would not move from the hotel. It'd be a nice educational vacation from the job.

I dreamt I was studying hardcore for the GREs. I woke up feeling very knowledgeable. Then the fog lifted and I had no idea what I'd studied.

I'm going to write to my profs re: recommendations in a couple of minutes, once I refresh my cup of chamomile (what? we don't have any other decaffeinated tea in the house beside white peach and, honestly? that stuff tastes like sweaty armpits). I hope I don't run into issues with them, although I really only need one additional letter as long as my manager doesn't screw me over.

Michael Chabon's The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier and Clay is quite engrossing. Of course, I haven't even gotten my hand on the actual [livejournal.com profile] nycbookclub book yet. But, then again, what's new?

Yeah, no idea what's going on with me lately.

Sorry I should probably know this, but where are you applying? Grad school?

I need to do the whole recommendation thing at some point, but I like don't really know how? I need them for like 5 different schools, and all at very different times. Don't know what to do.

Good luck with the profs!
Glad you're enjoying Kavalier and Clay!

Completely random but I've always wanted to go to Vegas. I don't gamble but I love neon! So shiny! I've been in a funk debating grad school(again!) or job applications and had a dream that I was working at a carnival. weird.
