Last Monday

I'm in a music bum kind of mood. It's not a day to dress up because the weather's absolutely awful here, so I'm wearing a favorite concert t-shirt with a non-descript hoodie, jeans and socks that don't really match. My hair's not bad today, but carries evidence of being exposed to this weird slushy rain we've got going on up here. I realized this morning in class that I have no idea how to do taxes (nor do I really understand how tax returns work) since I've never had a job that paid anything but cash. I wasn't all that phased by it. I come back to my computer after class and what goes on iTunes? Dispatch, lots and lots of lovely live album Dispatch. Oh and I decided that I'm not a big lover of stale heater air, so I've got the fan going in our room even though it's not even 30 degrees outside. Waste of energy? I think not. I'm doing the environment a favor and sparing it from stale heater air (ew).

Why does this make me a music bum? I don't know. Just trust me, that's the mood right now. I feel completely ready to hop on a tour bus with some obscure band and pretend I know how to play a guitar (though no smoking for me :-P - I have a pact with a friend to honor). And even though I showered last night, I kind of don't feel like showering for a while. YES I know that sounds strange/makes me seem like a grubby weirdo, but it's the honest truth at the moment.

What is this day? It's my last Monday of classes, the last real Monday I'll have for over a month, so that might explain the lack of motivation to work. At least I'm not taking a nap, which is what I'm usually doing at this time on a Monday. Even though I had coffee this morning, I probably could pull off another hour of sleep right now anyway, but hypothetically these two hours before 11 would be a good time to get work done (Look at all the work I'm getting done!). Ugh, the coffee I drank an hour ago just started kicking in, so that every part of me feels awake except for my eyes, which kind of sucks as a feeling. I'm sure that if I started doing real work, I'd feel more awake and productive, so maybe I should do that.

Orr I should plug in the christmas lights, check my email and tune the guitar I don't have...
