so what do you do when you realize that it's already 3:30 in the morning and you're still wide awake? you write a totally random email complete with pictures. i was contemplating on either cleaning my room or continuing to my second load of laundry. but i decided not to, so as not to wake the rest of the household. i could also continue reading The Confessions of Max Tivoli but i don't think i'd understand anything printed on those pages. emailing does not require much brain power and people don't care as much about grammar and spelling. as you can see i don't bother capitalizing my I's, and i excessively use the period even if a conjunction would suffice.
(although i really hate it when people send me text-message-like emails. i don't get it. all the letters are right there at your disposal. you don't need to press a certain key two or three times to get the letter you want. however, i sometimes i let it slide especially if it's only a few words in the whole email. i try hard not to use text shorthand mainly because i don't know how to properly abbreviate words....if there's even a standard abbreviation for those words. speaking of pet peeves: i also hate it when people use capital and lower case letters in random order. For example, "oH mY GoSh! hE IS suPer HoT!!!" what the hell!? that takes more time than necessary. i can tolerate people capitalizing random words for emphasis. but why do you need to capitalize a letter that's in the f'n' middle of the word?)
got carried away there. so where was i? right...the email. it took me an hour to write two emails. they're not very long either. i think around 6:30am i started to lose my ability to formulate complete sentences or even phrases that make sense. being sleep-deprived is much worse than being drunk although they have almost the same effects on you. you musn't operate heavy machinery. your conversations start making no sense except to someone else who is as drunk as you. your eyes glaze over. you tend to use the same two or three words over and over.
hopefully this doesn't become a nightly habit. i really don't think i can get away with being unproductive at work.
