Sleepless in Oslo

Not as catchy a title as Sleepless in Seattle, but just as true. I can't sleep. Instead I sit here, one chocolate bar and almost a larp-character later, and still sleep seems to elude me. But I'm listening to DumDumBoys and writing so at least that's something.

It's something so nice about being the only one awake at a late hour, looking out at the dark world outside wearing only a very comfy robe and actually getting some work done. It makes me happy. Now, if only I didn't have to be up in 4 hours, life would be very good indeed.

It was a good night, yes. Though the work I did was for a larp and not for my studies. But hey, I'll take what I can get. ;)

No camera. :( Or else there would have been pictures. Promise.

Staying up eternally is great, but it doesn't suite everyone. So if life with out sleep, food or breathing doesn't work for you, maybe you should try something else.

But the world is much nicer place during the night. Silent, dark and beautiful. Listening music, reading a book and watching out from windows during night, beautiful.

Sorry I wasn't able to keep you better company :(

Yeah, I love it. Is pretty much crashing now though. But I did manage 36 hours at least...

No worries. You had to have dinner, I understand. I got a lot of work done and got to talk to a bunch of people I haven't actually talked to for a while. So all is well in the Martine-world.

Casi says you need to come visit again, by the way. She mentioned it this morning.

Awesome! Say hi from me and tell her I'll do my best!

This was with absolutely no prompting on my part, mind you.

[identity profile] martinemonster.livejournal.com 2008-04-17 07:29 am (UTC)(link)
Well, you know, the only thing keeping me from visiting is the godawfully expensive tickets... :(

Thus proving that you should just move here and be done with it! =D

Move? To Texas?!

*shakes head*

Not that I don't like you guys, but come on. It's Texas...

Texas: Free gun with purchase of alcohol!

[identity profile] martinemonster.livejournal.com 2008-04-18 02:28 pm (UTC)(link)
You make a surprisingly compelling argument there...I would like a free gun.

But then again, think of all the suddenly armed crazies who walk the streets. Nope, Texas is too scary...

[identity profile] sandchigger.livejournal.com 2008-04-18 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, but you will be armed as well. For self-defense from the crazies, of course! =D

And we all know how well that works...two people with guns will be so much better than no people with guns...riiiight.

EXACTLY SO! :D
