Wouldn't it be fun

if the titles of my blog all formed a little paragraph over there on the right hand side of the screen? I may have to make this one of my April goals. But do I write a paragraph and then make my blogs begin with the few words directly preceding the words I used for the title of the previous blog? Or do I keep it more spontaneous and make that my daily challenge, write it backwards, see what happens? I'll decide in the morning, is what it looks like right now.

More importantly, it is April Fool's Day, and I am just itching to razz somebody or everybody I know, but it's so difficult when stuck at this desk. Or is it? I've already sent a certain someone an ecard that is of the "I'm just kidding, but it's April fool's, so am I kidding?" variety, but I'm not anticipating a response, which is disappointing. All of the things I can think of to lie about would only last a second and since I'm not getting the satisfaction of the look of utter horror on the other person's face just before they realize... well, what fun is that? I could do something to my roommate, but he's already on to me. (Seriously, I am not a secret keeper unless I really want to be.) And I don't want to cause permanent psychological damage, so what I just thought of is out... It's a good thing I don't use my powers for evil, let me tell ya.

Around this time of night, sometimes before, I start to feel like I could use some coffee, but then I think, no, then I'll never get to sleep and I'll sleep all day again, but the thing is: I sleep all day anyway, and I've only been up for like 12 hours (not even!), so why shouldn't I make some coffee and stay up a bit?... Except I'm actually not that sleepy right now, so I should just focus and get some more work done and get on with it already. I'm almost done with the introduction (I didn't have that much to do to it), and I have already set myself up to rearrange several sections, so if I get through the draft at least once tonight, adding notes and rearranging, then I will be satisfied with my progress. Because it would be ridiculous if I couldn't at least do that much.

I am taking at least a week this summer and just sitting on a beach somewhere far, far away. All by myself. Maybe I won't even tell anyone where I'm going. Well, that wouldn't really be safe, and I would probably get really bored, let's face it, but I am taking advantage of my time off is what I'm really getting at. I don't know what any of that means, really, but what I wouldn't give for some sun and sand right about now. The temperatures are gradually slipping upward, the temperatures are gradually slipping upward, it can't be cold and rainy forever...
