- Cameron called to make plans for Thursday.
I’m excited!
My mother thinks I’m crazy (or troubled) when I tell her I enjoy staying up all night. She doesn’t allow me to do this… but I do it anyway. I do a lot of things “anyway”.
So I’ve been up all night. It’s 5:05 AM right now and I’ve just recorded two songs decently and am now pumped, creatively. I’ve been writing again and have a couple poems in line to edit that I probably won’t post because they’re not that strong. They’re just the ones I wrote to say “Hey, I can write again… that’s good”. Then maybe Jacob will edit my midi files and convert them to mp3s… If all of that happens in the next twelve hours I’ll be very pleased. :)
I know that I can stay awake for at least 39 hours. I don’t think I’ll need to sleep until tonight. So… it’s 5:07 AM and today is a music day.
