can't sleep...again.

i can't sleep because of my over-active brain. lately i've been buying into that "get up and write things down" theory which i've practiced a couple of times with a pen and paper but i'm not sure blogger is in the theory.

anyway, i digress. it's been a lovely weekend. lovely in a stressful sort of way. on friday night i picked up our new family member also known as the 17-inch iMac. i'm so giddy with the newness but also very stressed about the newness and my complete lack of apple knowledge. honestly, i'm scared of it. the fancy i contain everything in the monitor, the center of the universe apple key, strange dashboards and the wonderful, hidden speakers. so really i've been stressed, trying to figure it out, while also tying in my ancient PC into the process. do i keep it? what should it function as? what to do with the external harddrive and the 12 million songs on it? what about a desk...i don't have a desk to put in on. irrational, stupid stress...yes. but wait there's more.

i've been sort of waiting on a mac. knowing that when i did i would start my pursuit of more graphic design knowledge and experience (ie. work). it was sort of off in the distance. but now...i have no excuse. and that stresses me out to. what if i can't do it? what if instead of being active and seeking my dream of not working a boring 8 to 5 job - i just keep doing the thing i complain to all of you about.

sigh...i really do annoy myself sometimes.

anyway, it was a lovely weekend. a new family member, internet on both computers, and hanging out with some old friends and some new friends that are really, really old friends. and then there was pirates (2 and 3) which has left me feeling very water logged.

i'm feeling a little groggy now so i should make my move.
