Last night, I had a full blown body rebellion. I ate very little that night, had some really bad milk (ptooey, sour), and not much else. About 2AM I started working on a special project for Emily in Second Life...and screetched to a halt at 2:45.

I hate having to do that every night. Just as the creative juices start really flowing cause I'm a night creature, I have to slam on the brakes in order to get at least 4 hours of sleep for my morning job.

And last night, my body was just not having it.

I ended up tossing and turning in bed while I argued with my body about "energy." It kept yelling at me, saying "You're always wanting to go ride a bike - I'm ready! Let's GO!" and "I'M FEELING CREATIVE! LET'S WRITE! You've been needing to finish your Wishworld chapter! I'm ready, let's go go go go go!"

Total sleep recieved: 1 hour. I shoulda just stayed up and taken a bike ride or written my chapter.

You know what I'm craving right now? I'm really craving a fried egg on toast, waffles and sausage. You know, part of a complete breakfast.

Things to see on the way to Seattle according to Roadside America

I love Texana and it's sister, Americana. I hate freeways with it's ever presence Waffle Houses, HoJos and Shell Station. I love getting down into the treches of towns and seeing what's there. It's how I learned so much about Central Texas' Things To See That No One Knows About.

Unfortunately, take me out of Central Texas, and my knowledge goes to zip. Thankfully there's http://www.roadsideamerica.com . But, well, on this trip, we're pretty confined to the freeways to Get Us Going Where We Need To Quick. I'd love to see all of these things listed, but it's prolly not gonna happen (when I did the Camino Real trip, I didn't realize stopping every 5 miles for a picture of a rock monument would take so long!). But we can try!

My biggest regret is we're not leaving early Sunday Morning. I know a place in Sterling City where you can get hubcap sized pancakes for $1.

( This way to fun! )
