I feel frenzied & disconnected all at once.

I have so many ideas, so much nifty stuff I want to make & do. I can even work around not having *quite* the proper tools or materials to do most of it & an almost complete lack of experience in most of the crafty areas I wish to explore... I just can't settle down on one thing long enough to get anything accomplished beyond making a giant mess. I'll get all excited about one thing, brainstorm, make plans... then somewhere between researching/planning, gathering supplies, or beginning a project, & getting said project anywhere near completion, I get sidetracked by something else, some other thing that I *need* to make or do or experience.

And nothing gets done. I am Sisyphus, rolling a big glittery papier mache rock up a patchwork hill. I suppose I must be happy.

I'm currently so tired that I can't focus on much of anything, & my motor skills are pretty much nonexistant with sleep deprivation. Yet when I lay down in bed, I get all agitated with exciting ideas involving tissue paper, food dye, elmers glue, glitter, crayons, & art paper; the most workable construction of ragbunnydollies; the possibilities of crafting my own ball-joint dolls; or a better way to do wire-wrapped beading w/o actually buying round pliers.

Leave it to me to discover Craft-Related Anxiety Disorder.

So. As usual, I have much to do (only a small part of it craft-related), yet I somehow can't find the time to do it, despite not really seeming to do much of anything at all.

And I burnt my tongue on pizza.

And I swear to god, if my eyes don't stop itching, I'm going to have to start wearing goggles 24/7 to keep from rubbing them until they're swollen little watery red prunes.

AstroCenter assures me that I'm just having some sort of awkward planetary alignment, & I should be back to normal in a day or 2.

Maybe tomorrow they'll tell me what "normal" is.

Give a Clix, if you please.
