thoughts on a thursday morning

[auntiemeesh]

My eyes are super dry and gritty this morning. Fourth night in a row that I haven't slept well and I can feel my patience slipping a little. I'm kind of glad it's a gloomy, rainy morning. I don't think I'd be able to handle any sort of aggressive sunshine right now. But I've got coffee and a snuggly sweatshirt, so I'll live.

I've been trying to come up with a halloween costume but the creative side of my brain seems to have gone on vacation. I sort of want to do an android. The World's First Intelligent Android, run on Microsoft's innovative new Windows Sapiens operating system. I've got a bunch of old electronics I could scavenge to make a 'hidden' control panel somewhere on me that could pop open. There's a lot I could do with it, but it seems to lack the flair for 'mad science run amok' which is the theme for the party. If I was a bolder, more outgoing and socially capable person, I could run amok through the party, making hilarious social blunders on purpose and then spouting all sorts of ridiculous error codes and then just randomly freezing in place until someone rebooted me. It would be so much fun, if only I were the sort of person who could do that. I may do it anyway, since I can't think of doing anything else, other than a generic Mad Scientist.

I love the costume idea! I'd need to think up some error messages ahead of time. And I don't think you need the blue screen of death, since androids don't have screens. Spazziness should do just fine.

I definitely need to have all the errors and blunders planned out in advance. Otherwise it really would just be me spazzing around being an idiot.
