I have this strategy when I go on long drives – consume enough caffeine to stay alert for the trip but not so much that I’m an incoherent gibbering wreck when I get home. Being able to sleep sometime in the next 48 hours would be good too.
I got my plan half right.
So I’m safely home but twitching and drooling more than I’d like. My brain is sorta like radio slightly out of tune with a channel. Lots of static that occasionally almost forms coherent sounds that make some sort of sense. I think I’ll run around outside and chase cicadas for a while.
Hahaha! Welcome back, Mr Radio-brain!
Salamaat,
Welcome back
yes, and now I’m up again six hours later because I can’t sleep. Gaaah! I’m going to have a rotten Friday.
Good you’re home.
I do that too – overload on coffee for everything. Particularly Christmas!
I got back from Melbourne yesterday; four cans of V later….Ahhh well, at least I can have a nanna nap this afternoon…
Unrelated, but I think you’d appreciate this: http://xkcd.net/c202.html
Mmm. Caffeine.
Well, if “I think I’ll run around outside and chase cicadas for a while” says the same as why I want to unwind by catching a good funny buzz (here in this blog) at least once per day, unless I forget, which I would not want to admit. Would I? Stop leaving and this will not happen, even if it tried to happen. Did you know that? Probably. Strange, upside down maybe.

tenderhooligan: I got the balance right for the drive down but I’m still paying for the drive back
grunstki: yeah, the nanna nap helps – passed out on the lounge mid-afternoon
candice: that comic sums up things well
Galen: I try to maintain the daily laughs
Timmy: I prefer the taste of red bull but they both send you off your nut.
I hate driving too long, it sucks the life out of you, it’s so monotone. This from somebody who worked from his car for a few years.
