Mar. 25th, 2007 02:09 amLazy day today. I slept till 6, which was a relief, as I'd been awake for 30 or so hours yesterday (using my bizzaro definition of yesterday, which is "The period in between the last two times I slept", which means that I'm probably a good 4 or 5 years younger than I actually am, which might at some point become a key plot point in a surreal version of my life based loosely around The Pirates of Penzance), and recently my sleep schedules have been out of whack enough that I'd do things like stay awake for 40 hours, go to sleep dead tired, and then wake up fully rested 3 hours later, which strikes me as probably not the best sort of behaviour for continued sanity. My circadian rhythms have a hell of a lot of circa in them, and not so much dian.
Originally intended to go to one of the 6 parties and/or clubs happening tonight, but my lackadaisical early morning (my definition of morning by the way is the period of time after I have woken up, but before I have eaten anything) efforts didn't bear any ride fruits, so I just BARTed over to the Robots, partook of fine alcohol (For incredibly loose definitions of the term that involve both the words vanilla and schnapps), chatted and watched the best wushu movie I have ever seen that happens to have a cast composed solely of puppets. Will and Nadja have the best movie collection. Mine is larger, and more critically acclaimed, but theirs has the important distinction that it would win in a knock down drag out brawl, based solely on it containing far more zombies, monsters, puppets, aliens, incredibly large versions of animals and insects, and William Shatner. There's just not a lot of damage you can do with a Sundance award if you're facing off against the naked terror a well oiled William Shatner in battle fever.
Slightly fortified by the tender ministrations of Dr. McGillicuddy and his vaguely alcoholic concoction, we decided to play Venus Needs Men. It really isn't a particularly good game, or I just hadn't had enough booze. I will accept both answers. I suppose it would be amusing enough if you didn't particularly like the thinking aspect of games (much like I'm sure Candyland would be interesting if you didn't realize that once you shuffled the deck the game was already predetermined so there's absolutely no point in "playing"), and just wanted something to socialize around, but sadly, I can't turn my brain off that much. It probably didn't help that I was playing the parasitic aliens, whose power might as well be written "Ask your opponents which is faster, geometric progression or arithmetic progression. If they answer arithmetic, you win the game. If not, pray you're exceptionally lucky. If they ask what the common ratio of the geometric progression is, you're screwed, just quit now". Anyway, some amusing moments, but in general, too brainless to hold my attention.
Put in El Topo after that, and almost got through the prologue before peoples eyes started drooping. Got a ride home from Damon, and now I'm stuck trying to figure out what to do with the (un)day. Don't really feel like reading just at the moment, but I've been bad at picking other things to do. Maybe a movie, but what? Maybe you can help. Pick an integer between oh, let's say 1 and 400 or so and let me know what it is. Yes, you there reading this. My boredom or lack there of is entirely dependent on you. Don't let me down.
