zombie thoughts

i was a total zombie yesterday... i think it's the effect this whole week has had on me. why on earth isn't it friday yet? it feels like friday should have been ages ago. eons. lightyears. the mood of the week is that i'm very annoyed. that's the word for it. just at everything, (probably mostly because it's not friday yet). yesterday i found myself just staring off into space on numerous occasions. i think it may have something to do with trying to force creativity into my 8-hour span at work when things need to get done. it's hard to force the imagination, and it completely turned me into a zombie. I've written the last few days just to keep the juices going. today is a bit better...

I was reading about left-brain vs. right-brain yesterday. and tried some online tests to figure out which one i am. i took two tests from two different sites. One told me i was left brained, the other said right. I found that interesting, because a lot of times i feel like there's guerrilla warfare going on inside my head. where the left-brain sophosticates are pelted with paintballs from the right-wing activists. hmm... maybe that's called bipolar. i read that people who are left brained enjoy classical music, where people who are right brained prefer rock. but people who are right-brained are the more creative. so why is it when i listen to classical music it enables me to write or work more efficiently, and at least in terms of writing more creatively as well. hmm...

well, this was just enough post-lunch pondering to get me ready for the afternoon of forced creativity. hopefully some of it will come along willingly, and transpire into the rare moments of enjoyment. i think i would have infinitely more of those moments if work wasn't such an 8-5 deal.... if i could work when inspired. or maybe if the traffic didn't suck so much getting here in the morning. sigh.

i have handel's water music playing now, i have a diet cream soda chillin' in the freezer, time is slowly marching toward friday, survivor and apprentice are on tonight, i'll be able to relax and get to bed early. all in all it'll turn out to be a pretty good day.
