Ohyeahbaby. First post from Emily. Though I think I can safely assume that whatever readership we gain will be seeing a lot more of me than Sameera. So I hope we get along. :D
I thought it appropriate to begin my blogging experience with an example of just how much of an idiot I can be. There are two kinds of ways in which I tend to shame myself - the "Wow, I really should have thought that through." and the "Shut up, it's 4am and I haven't slept yet." The latter of which can also manifest itself as "Shut up, I haven't slept in ___ days." I've never been much of a sleeper, even as an infant.
Anyway.
Two nights ago, I was hanging out in my apartment at around 3am. Now, this is usually pretty normal for me, so usually I wouldn't be too concerned, but this year I had promised myself that I was going to be better, that I was going to go to sleep at a normal time (I had decided that meant 10pm at the latest.) instead of staying up all night and the next day like an android. Now, it was already five hours after the time I had deemed acceptable to be awake at, and I figured I'd just put on some background sound and listen to it until it finally put me to sleep. This was working until my paranoia started to get to me. Was the dvd playing too loud? Would the people upstairs get angry, perhaps even come down here and yell at me? (This was stupid considering usually it's the other way around, but I refer you to way-I-shame-myself number two.) Maybe putting this dvd up a few extra volume notches would somehow cause the space time continuum to rupture and suck me into it. I'd probably regret that.
So I turned over and started attempting to turn down the volume on my laptop. With the tv remote. And that went on for about half an hour. The end.

Rip in the space time continuum which results in backward time travel. To the 50s. [Mr. Sandmaaannn~♫♪]
