Thick as a brick is not a bad phrase to describe my head today. I need uninterrupted sleep. I added a new station to my journey through insomnia last night. Now I wake up on the fibonacci hours:23, and as an extra added bonus, pi, 3:14. My clock doesn't show seconds, and I think this is a good thing. What the fuck. I suppose I'd have to wake up twice at 1:23 to really pull off the sequence, but hey. I'm doing the best I can. I'm not even a mathematician.

Anyway, I can't seem to get much accomplished today either. Yesterday I was toxic, today I'm just stupid. Everything's not coming out wrong, but every third thing is. And I have something useful to say to the spiral ritualists, if I could just figure out how to say it. I understand Mercury's in retrograde and all, but I don't even believe in astrology. Maybe if I don't believe in it harder, it will leave me alone.

I took 100 mic. of synthroid and 2 excedrin. Couldn't hurt, might help.

EDIT: The fog is clearing a bit now - maybe it's the med hit, or maybe it's this: "We are going to create a super-coffee that everyone can benefit from eventually," Mr Rodrigues told reporters in Brasilia.

Theories and equipment...sounds ghostbutery to me...can I play?

Love to make up new words...language is one of my favorite things but it doesn't work well in the song...

(in my best julise Andrews impersonation) language and verbage and particlples dangling...

Same tune, different words

Verbage invented, modifiers mangled,
Grammar disrupted, participles dangled,
Suffixes added without any need,
To the warped linguaphile, these are fine things indeed!

When they tell you, that it's not so
That your words are wrong,
Just grin a big grin and then tell them you know,
And sing them this little song!

Thanks! (But it's probably better not to encourage me...as you can see, it takes very little to set me off on these things)

Nothing you don't already know.

In other news, know what the only other common-use word I've found that uses the same word as sarcophagus is?

Sarcasm (from sarkazein, to tear flesh like dogs, apparently)

Wow. That's interesting. Where did you find that fun little nugget?

Dictionary.com, of course.

Isn't that what the Internet is for?

I don't know. Did you encounter any porn in your research?

Now that you mention it, no, despite the keyword 'flesh' being involved.

Huh.

Hee!

There you are - mindless doggerel. A sure sign I'm feeling better.
