5:13am

i know what you're thinking... what's she doing awake and blogging at 5:13am? that's even pretty bad in california with the time change. well, i decided that since i got twelve hours of sleep last night, and i have to wake up at 8:30am tomorrow... or today, i figured less was more. for some reason, if i get 5 hrs of sleep, my body can't handle it... it will push it all the way to 7 or 8. but if i get 2-4 hrs of sleep i wake up feeling refreshed. i mean, i'm definitely not saying i do this on a regular basis, but i was too afraid i'd sleep through work tomorrow, and i'm working from 10-2 at eddie and 3-7 at steamers tomorrow and friday. lets see, what else. i bought yo yo ma's new holiday cd upon hearing it in zak's car. let me tell you, it's pretty fascinating. especially hearing renee fleming and chris thile's voices mesh together in harmony. it's quite good. i'm recently addicted to edgar meyer. by far one of the most amazing upright bass players i've ever heard in my life. side note, i need to get my act together and start prepairing for next semester... before it's too late.
things i need:
money, health insurance, eddie bauer jeans, new tires, a plane ticket to california, church, more prayer, a georgia drivers license, my birth certificate or a passport to get said license, and a digital camera.
things that fascinate me:
edgar meyer, bela fleck, chris thile, opera music, the fact that i never capitalize anything online, the number of friends i have that are amazing photographers, finding a new photographer on flickr that amazes me, realizing how much/little i have in common with people i've known my whole life, the desire i have to study abroad, how much i miss choir, and for that matter how much i miss being a student.

hm. i've been very introspective lately. last night, i listened to renee fleming on youtube for a good 30 minutes, and i found myself on the verge of tears just listening to her. i feel odd. i need a vacation. not that my life has been overly stressful lately.. i just need to GO somewhere. i find i'm a pretty restless person. but oddly enough, i can sit in one spot in silence for so long...

until next time...
