Just woke up from a very strange and lovely dream involving pagan wedding-night fertility rites. It was particularly interesting in that I was someone living in the Middle East several thousand years ago, and had just given up my own religion in order to take a pagan wife. I was the stranger in town, as I was from as far away as the next town over. There were even language variations between the two towns. There were words I was used to pronouncing with a 't' sound that they said with a 'g' sound in my new village. While discussing the differences with the folks, and how I was sometimes finding it difficult to understand people, It was quite clear that I was speaking some sort of semitic language. Whatever it was, it certainly wasn't English.

Groggy Man.
Sep. 8th, 2007 02:45 pmI'm just totally groggy right now. I made the mistake of taking a nap around 9:00 am (I got up at 5:30 am this morning) because I suddenly felt tired. Now, naps typically make me feel worse right not better, but I've been trying to see if practice will improve that. So far, not.
I told![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
taxlady to nudge me at 10:30 as I've read that a nap should be either less than 20 minutes or more than 90 if you don't want to be woken in the middle of a sleep cycle. Well, I didn't really sleep for those ninety minutes. I just sort of dozed. It wasn't until I was told to get up that I fell asleep. I had strange but pleasant dreams about trying to get an old friend's baby-pictures back from shreddy who had stolen them and was determined to guard them against all comers.
So 2 1/2 hours later, I woke up, feeling VERY groggy. I'm now drinking caffeinated coffee which I didn't do this morning, as I felt quite wide awake when I woke up the first time. No knowing what this nap has done to my sleep/wake schedule either, but I'm hoping it won't have disrupted things too much, as I want to get up tomorrow morning in order to get tokyotto's birthday brunch thingy.
Other than that, its quiet here -- too quiet. I really should get some work done on the WorldCon website, but so far today I've yet to get sufficiently awake that I feel competent to tackle the next part of the job.
