Slaying the Sleep Monster

I did what I needed to do, like getting rid of my caffeine tolerance, gaining on the sleep monster and upgrading of electronics (as always) among other things. But my house is so cold that my lava lamp doesn’t even work. Sure, the upside is the gaming rig that never overheats, but is it worth defrosting my milk?

So change of plans. I didn’t take the train back to Purdue. Mom saw all the snow that I shoveled on Friday and insisted that she drop me off Sunday morning. I was disappointed that I wouldn’t get to take my shield through a train station, but it wasn’t all bad because I could hang out with friends one last time. Increased my snowboarding skill and played Rock Band 2 at John’s house. (While I was singing his mom said I should “keep my day job”.) BTW, Walthers singing “Hungry Like the Wolf” = effin priceless.

Did I relish the thought of standing at the top of the escalator and challenging all who dare ascended? You know I did. I even memorized some 300 quotes to say during the trip. But my duffeloid probably wasn’t up to anything near the amount of snow Chicago received with it’s tiny inline skate wheels.

So we drive down into Indiana early Sunday morning. And we find no snow accumulation in Lafayette at all, but we do find a lot of rock salt accumulation. Oh, well. That’s what I brought the doormat for. And the adhesive hooks I brought are going to make this semester much awesomer than last.

    Question, If you lost your caffeine tolerance wouldn’t that lend to you not being able to sleep?…of course I guess that only applies if you’ve had caffeine before bed… hmm
