I'm going to bed early tonight. You know what I think it was...I didn't read my book before bed. I love to read before hitting the hay, and I just went straight to bed. I didn't take that time to detox the mind.

omg you guys, it's getting to be one of those nights again, i can feel it coming on. this time i'm at least tired cuz i'm drunk.

btw jes, i did try your camomile in the bath solution the other day and that seemed to work fine. in fact i was stressed about something, and then the moment i put my hand in the water to test the temperature, i felt it instantly relieved. i am not going to go into too much trouble but this was a physical stress not an emotional one. but in that time i used up all the camomile.

i am starting to wonder if i have a problem. i seemnot to be able to handle all the recent excitement in a great way. i just want to talk and talk and talk and talk cuz i have so much going on it's like i can hardly even hold it all inside. also maybe there is a slight inbalance in how in my "days off" i dn't do anything but lounge around, but then that ends and i'm rarin' to go and like juggling a million appointments and calls i need to make, all in my head. is this normal for working people? all my jobs in the past have been so mindless i've never thought twice of them after work and curse myself when i did. but now, w/this working for myself and needing to do a million things, i'm like, a madwoman.

did i tell you guys this? i am moving on WEDNESDAY. i didn't find out until today, short notice eh? so it's like doing that, getting ready for market, trying to obtain these copyright permissions (decided to just do it rather than asking a lawyer, after i read up on the history of fair use and talked to someone who used to work in music publishing). so far i do have tori's permission, that's why her dad's phone call woke me up this morning. at least i will know all this for next time, and for publishing other people's books. but still pain in the ass, every copmany wants different things. for this ONE pearl jam line i quote (from Indifference), i have to contact three different publishers, grrr!

so there's all that, and getting ready for the market, contracting artwork for my site and other side projects, working on the business edn of starting the publishing company, going to coachella in less than two weeks, and so on and so on. even got a new freelance writing job.

i think i need trangquilizers, lol. last week, esp after my ho sleeping i started makign myself quit working at seven PM and go watch whell of fortune and some other shit instead. even now i was going to go watch south park but here i am typing away instead and the show is almost over. man, i used to say i hated TV or blah blah and so much of IS crap, but i'm also glad for it, as something to relax to sometimes when you need your mind to be stiller, and need something more calming and less engaging than reading. i'm hoping i can get satellite at the new place, cuz there's some great shit on there, and great political stuff too.

doe s anyone give a fuck about any of this? probably not, but any like, semi natural sleeping or calming down advice would be welcome. on my weekend days when my boy is here, i just don't even think about this stuff until it's like he's been here a couple days and i'm like oh shit i need to get work done, and then i start getting irritable. up until that point though, weekends are weekends no matter what day of the week they fall on. when i'm here by myself though and mentally juggling all this, it's almost like there is too much momentum to really stop and rest. i'm being relatively productive but jesus christ, lol. i'm drunk and i'm still this hyper, that is not right.

then again, w/the news of the TOOL show, who *could* sleep?
