Thread: Sleep (n): An inadequate substitute for caffeine

Tweet

Yeah, it's full-on build season. I didn't get to bed until 2:00am last night. ^;30 can really damn fast! Ah, the life of a haunter!

I'm pretty sure I haven't been to bed before 1am in a couple of weeks now. And it won't get any earlier from here on in. Until the party ends in the wee hours of Nov. 2, I expect to get little sleep this month.

Damn it's going to be a long month at work.

But I've got lots of coffee, so life's gonna be ok somehow.


How messed up is everybody else's sleeping pattern getting?

Haven't lost any sleep..

Mostly because I procrastinated on ordering all the things I need for this year's new props.. So I have nothing to work with! Let the panic shopping begin...

In the past week I bought 3 cowlacious audio boards, 3 24v transformers, 6 fans and a strobe. Today I have to order 10 relays, 10 LED floods and another fog machine. I have to dig out my prop-1 boards and pneumatic solenoids.. I don't even remember how many I have.. I hope I have enough tubing...

This weekend.. off the the supply houses for misc stuff.

So, I figure I'll start losing sleep this weekend..

I think this is the first year I am not going crazy building props late into the night. I started in late Feb. this year and wrote a list with which prop was going to be built over each month and it finally worked (third year in a row I tried to do this but never kept up with it so would do my usual rush around like a madman routine!). Not that I can now sit on my hindquarters though, I still find things to do , fix, or tweak.

that's dedication! I'm not worried about getting new props done in a frenzy. If I don't get finished it will give me something to work on until next year.

I have it backwards...

I have insomnia, so I work on props when I can't sleep.

I'm sooooo tired, but at least I'm doing something useful!
