We stayed up all night

[float_on_alright]

I am tired y’all! I went up to go to bed around midnight last night, maybe a little after, and I was getting in the bed when I realized that I still had laundry in the washing machine. If I had left it sitting in the washing machine wet overnight, they would have been awful and smelly today and I would have had to wash them all over again. That wasn’t something I was interested in doing. So by the time I got all my laundry sorted, my teeth brushed, and my other abolusions taken care of, it was around 1 am.

 

The problem with me being up until 1 am is that I can no longer make good decisions. I always have a hard time making good decisions when it comes to going to bed at a reasonable time, but keep me up that late and it just gets worse.

 

Anyway, I was just going to add “Kim Reaper” -- a graphic novel about a girl who is paying for college by working as a Reaper who also falls in love with a cute little goth girl -- to my “to read list” on GoodReads. I was looking to see how much it was on Amazon and if perhaps one of the libraries had it. None of the libraries had it, but when I added it as “to read” I noticed that someone's review said that they had gotten a copy of the book through NetGalley. I have a NetGalley account so I thought I’d mosey on over and see if by any chance it was still available to request on there. Not only was it still available to request, it was actually available as a “Read Now”! That’s a pretty rare thing for me to look up a book I want to read and it just be available for me to download and read so I was really excited.

 

I downloaded and used the “Send to Kindle” option on my phone, but when I opened the file on my iPhone it was just gobbledy-gook. So then I thought I’d try saving it to Dropbox first and then opening the file using the Kindle App to see how that worked. Still nonsense. As I’m fighting with that file, I notice a fic I sent to my Kindle to read that sounded really cute.

 

At this point, it’s about 1:36 am and I think to myself, welllll, since I’m already up too late anyway, I might as well read this 10,000 word story. Now that didn’t take me too long to read, but it got me all wound up because sometimes super cute fluff after angst just does that to me (admittedly especially when it’s Sterek, I guess they’re just going to be my OTPFAE) so I had to surf the net to calm down. But then once I started surfing, I started thinking about stuff I wanted to look up and…

 

Well, I ended up staying up until shortly after 3 am. At least, I think it was shortly after 3 am. I don’t know that I can really, rightly say for sure.

 

So yeah.

 

And then today I had planned on just doing one of the Couch to 5k things around the neighborhood, but the weather was sort of gross on the way home so I changed and shot off to the gym. It was packed, which made trying to do my routine orderly and quickly impossible. And because I wanted to come home and have dinner, I had to rush a little bit more than I might have otherwise. I still got in a great workout, so I really can’t complain.

 

Tomorrow is supposed to be really nice, so I’m planning to go for the couch to 5k thing in the morning before work. I work from 11am - 8pm tomorrow so I’ll miss out on the nice weather if I try to go at 9 pm when I get home. Wish me luck!

 

I guess it’s not really luck I need to get me out of bed in the morning… Eh. Whatever.
