I am very busy and important.

I got hooked on a new lifestyle trend this weekend called Going To Bed At A Normal Time Instead Of Staying Up Until 3am Watching British TV Shows on YouTube. It's amazing! I was actually motivated to do things like be social and clean my apartment and do this other thing called Doing Something That Has To Be Done Now, Rather Than Saying "I'll Do That Later" And Never Doing It. I even felt guilty when I wasn't being productive!

And it's continued into the week! Last night I went to bed at 10pm, and when my alarm went off this morning, I woke up, rather than pulling the pillow over my head and snoozing until the last minute. Tonight I might even do some homework! Who is this person, and what has she done with srah?

I'm not completely sure, but whoever she is, she must enjoy Love, Actually

Bridget Jones, actually.

I am VERY impressed! My bed time is like 10, but I've gone at 11pm+ all this week and last. I HAVE been getting up for the gym though!

That's my usual MO, too. I have a stated bedtime of 10, but it's usually 11+ when I actually go to bed.

The writers' strike is helping, though! If I never get around to turning the TV on, I don't do that "Well, I'll go to bed after this. No wait, this other thing is on. I'll go to bed after that" thing.

D'oh! Didn't Hugh Grant say that exact same thing when he answered the phone in Love, Actually?

According to IMDb, you're right!

I go to bed at 10 and I love it! Only thing is, then I want to go to bed early on weekends too! And stay in bed! Bed, bed, bed!

Tumblr tells me when you post faster than my stupid feed reader.

Whatever disease you have, I caught it too.

i am trying to be this same person! can you tell her to take over Damsel when she is done with Srah?

Congratulations! That is an amazing skill that I'm still working on developing. Hopefully your success will inspire me.

Although no matter how early the bedtime, I will never be happy about getting up when the alarm goes off. It's just not possible.

It might just be a sign of manic depression. I hope not, but the hypochondriac in me won't let me rule it out.

Sleeping is phenomenal. I am obsessed. :)

Yeah, that tv thing is dangerous! I feel like a bit of a hypocrite for saying this, but it's actually the perfect semester for a writer's strike. That still doesn't change the fact that Thursday nights I still mope and wallow.
Yay for productivity!
