I feel like I am thinking about way too much stuff right now and all I can do is keep refreshing this stupid local message board over and over even though nothing interesting is happening on it.

what do you do when this happens?

maybe I should go for a moped ride or something.

I need sleep to F5 my life right now. first I will make falafel and eat it. then I will watch Star Trek and go to sleep.

another thing that kind of helps at times like these is reading about stuff that is kind of detached from everyday reality. like I just got this book out of the library on the history and theory of quantum mechanics and it's a nice escape from worrying about boring shit all day. similar to this is watching Star Trek and reading any sci-fi really.

I usually read too, but online. But this semester I've actually been reading books(!) I just finished Ayn Rand's Anthem (super short read), and I'm starting on Amartya Sen's Development as Freedom.

... and let the Earth be silent after ye.
I can't believe two people said "F5 my life". :(

I usually walk to my friends' places and chain smoke while working on cars or whatever.

I'm fixing my sleep schedule to f5 by life, I've been really sloppy and generally non-conscious about how I'm living. I got called out on it today... time to fix her up

haha I'd never heard that before and I thought it was funny so I decided to say it too.

who called you out? I'm gonna go to bed insanely early tonight, like 9:30 or 10.

I'd call you insane for going to sleep that early.

that is the schedule that I should be on, andyp. it's more like 11:45 to 6:45 though, which isn't terrible, but if I let myself sleep as long as I want every night I get more like 8 hours. and for some reason I'm more tired after sleeping for 7 hours than sleeping for 5 or 6.

you probably enter another rem cycle after ~6 hours. waking up from rem sleep is a lot worse than waking up from light sleep

Yes it is. This is why I can remember at least 2-3 dreams per night.

I definitely didn't go to sleep until like 11:15. I always find stuff to do on the internet like right at 9 or 10 o'clock, wtf?
