a new level of pathetic for me

Sign in to disble this ad
it's quarter till 3. i'm laying in bed, alone.

could be playing bass, could be playing my xbox 360 with any number of online people, or myself.

don't have to be at work in the morning - my first task is music making at 12:30. no need to go to sleep any time soon, but i want to. or don't want to. i don't know. i'm not doing anything either way.

but instead, i'm listening to depressing(ly beautiful) music, reading...no new threads on TB, because everyone with common sense is asleep (except kwesi apparently, heh), and...just laying here.

it's no fun. but i don't know what to do, or what i want to do, or what i can do, or what i can afford to do...

i get paid tomorrow, after music making. in time to buy the new COD, and get my ass kicked in it cause i suck at playing but am so masochistic that i keep coming back, and spending money for the privilege...

not unlike relationship issues i dunno if i want to talk about on TBOT...



EDIT: just noticed how much i love elipses....like there...what do you know...maybe i should try finishing my sentences...but that requires me to finish them in my head and i hardly ever do...

Quarter to 3 and you are considering sleeping, wuss!

Actually, I normally go to bed by 12, as I have trouble sleeping past 9, however a good percentage of my friends (who don't..err.. work. At least not in a traditional sense) stay up to 3ish most nights.

Then they wake up after noon generally. Its always interesting to go around to someones place after work and they are eating breakfast.

up until last week my job called for me being at work between 6 and 9 in the morning, so 3 is justified and old habits are hard to beat.

mainly i just feel like going to sleep now because there's nothing to do...or that i want to do? but then i do nothing, which i don't want to do either. blehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

I think your lack of sleep is making you mildly psychotic. Go to bed.

mildly?

my unicorn can tell you himself how it's more than mildly.

but that's beside the point, 'tis always been that way.

nope nope...this is more down/depress than boredom. not that boredom isn't a big part of it.

who would have guessed that people are still awake in TBOT...just have to lure them out a bit.

Good thread, really ! I can relate to looking at TB at 3am and seeing if there are any new posts. I love this site , some guy from the other side of the globe wanted to know what amp he should buy. Oh great , I can answer this in my sleep. When I can't sleep I sometimes put on the Weather Channel for the lite jazz they play.......or I play a bass through my headphone amp....Or I could post on this thread and get some crazy feedback..............hang in there and keep on trucking,,

FWIW, my pals do all-night stay ups all the time (for Lord knows what reason) and come to college the next day fresh as daisies
