Bounce, Bounce, Bounce!!

I had a latte yesterday...

Jameil doesn't drink caffeine like that...

So Starcrack makes her like a small, hyper child.  You know the annoying kind?

I was like that, but not annoying.  Just really energetic.  And seeing how there's only ME to bother in the house, I was just amusing myself.  I got a lot done.  Or a decent amount done.  And I wanted to keep going so that I wouldn't come down before I got done but after I made my black bean burgers topped with parmesan cheese & an over medium hard egg and a side of greens gumbo, it was time for Project Runway!!!  PERFECT timing on that one!  As soon as my burger was done I was sitting in front of one of my favorite shows.  Yaaaaaay!!!  Miraculously I still haven't read the FoodNetworkMag I got a few days ago, or watched the Cary Grant movie I got yesterday.  I'm actually getting stuff accomplished.  WHAT??? 

I spent several hours in the lab today watching (some incredibly boring) footage looking for something that could fit in my film.  My thesis partner got these old videos from the library.  I watched 2hrs and 15 minutes of mind-numbing tape and got exactly 7 seconds that might be usable.  Shoot. face. now.  Thanks!  We laid down a possible beginning and a possible end but there's still a lot of work left.  Stace was like, "You're so busy!!"  And still not doing enough.  (Yes, I know I'm beginning to sound like a broken record but such is my life.)  Part of it is the craziness of a demanding assistantship on top of my film but I'm getting that work down to a science so that I can focus on the film.  I have about 50 pages left in this book assigned to the students.  I plan to get that out of the way a little at a time by next Wednesday which will have me plenty ahead of schedule.

I don't do caffeine either. I'm wound up enough as it is. Once the people I work with played a game of "who is most like which animal". They decided that I was most like a squirrel.

I do caffine. But If I had time to prepare decaffinated tea in the mornings that would work for me too.

I can't wait to go grocery shopping *Random*

Sincerely,

Go

adei... you'd love it! i don't want to begin a caffeine addiction but maybe once a week.... we'll see. i have a new coffee maker (Christmas game w/the fam). i just need some coffee. i look forward to getting lots more work done!!

red... i know, right? not squirrel! lol. that's adei's animal for real! anything 'shiny or bubbly' as she puts it makes her lose her train of thought. it's HILARIOUS!!

Whenever you get excited, I always wonder if you had some caffeine. LOL 2hrs 15 mins for 7 seconds? Guess who never wants to be an editor. If you couldn't guess, that would be me!
