so ends my six day, 49 hour work week. i certainly feel tired, but
it's not the kind of tired i've felt the last few weeks, that is,
it's the kind of tired that can be cured by a simple sleep and a morning
spent with the cats and a few breakfast nibbles. i really wonder what
was up on those other days, i can't recall ever feeling more tired
in my life. a hard change of seasons this year seemed to be going
around, judging by all those i'd talked to; the autumn came abruptly
this year. i'm thinking that was most of it.
so it was a long week, but i'm pleased to say i did manage to get
in one night of tequila debauchery and another night spent drifting
between classic house at lucky, courtesy of lux and moe, and prog
and hard house at hush, courtesy kenzie and braeden. a good night
out, my first in quite a while.
as for plans for my days off, so far i have few. tonight i'm tired,
but it's the good kind of tired, the kind which, fuelled by a corona
or five, will most likely have me screening dreams long before the
hours reach double digits. as for recent dreams, well, what dreams
i might have remembered from last night were dashed to pieces by a
very unusual event this morning, a source of very much confusion.
the cats, bless their tiny furry souls, are very much creatures of
habit, perhaps more so even than i. when i woke this morning on my
left side, that is, facing right were i mushed belly forward into
the bed, my eyes first beheld the black outlines of one jennifer the
cat. dimly conscious, i then noticed to the left the calico cat very
much lost in dreams. ouch, my hemispheres! jenny's always on the left
and calico's always on the right! for a hazy moment this very morning,
i thought perhaps for all these years i've had the whole world all
wrong. seriously. there i am at eight this morning lying in bed scrunching
my fingers under the duvet trying to figure out which hand i write
with. it was easily 45 seconds of potentially world-changing confusion
before i started thinking about how to blog the experience.
the world, of course, is unchanged. and i've almost dismissed the
thought that the cats were deliberately fucking with my head. and
i'm still left-handed for writing and right handed for almost every
other thing. but it was a moment of disorientation like ones i've
often paid good money to experience, an unexpected part of life, lost
somewhere between the alarm and the bashing of the snooze bar. my
kingdom always for nine minutes more.
