Uninspired, or Just Plain Tired

In the typewriter days, I'd be sitting at my desk with a stack of crumpled papers overflowing the trash can right now.   Two of the past three nights, I've enjoyed only 3-4 hours of sleep.  Last night, I slept better but had weird dreams (no dream dressing, alas).  I'm awake enough to be productive at work, and there's lots of it right now, but I can't get the creative side moving.  Work, right now, doesn't involve a lot of right-brain work ~ it's more applying knowledge, which I can almost do in my sleep (like today).  It's more like editing than writing.

Hopefully, I'll be back on track Friday.  I still have a game night, a gender discussion at Christine's, and an evening out with probably thirty girls.  This was a different kind of event, by the way.  Here's why:



This was in the Washington Post's "going out guide."

And this was going to be a dress-UP opportunity, and I took advantage of it.

    You look great in that gown. I have never had an occasion to wear a gown out and I do look forward to making that happen.
    I hope that you had a good time. I am also emerging from a busy time at work where I was just not getting enough sleep. Monday and Tuesday I did not get home until very late and on Tuesday morning I was so tired driving to work that as soon as I put my car in park I had to shut my eyes for a short nap.
    As we age we learn that life is a series of ups and downs and that difficult times do pass.
    You will be back on your game soon. Count on it.

    You have better events in the DC area than I tend to find in the NYC area....
