One Crazy Weirdo.... Thaz me!!!

Start time: 4:19... AM.... Saturday March 29, 2008.

Yeah... once again, what else would any other sane person do but write a blog at 4:20 in the morning!!?!? I ask you!!

Other than perhaps put on a "Lord of the Rings"-ish elf-ish costume and go wander the halls of her apartment??

Or......

You could be really cool and "normal" and do BOTH!! :D *looks around for a sympathetic face* .... (Being "normal" is so overrated BTW... "weird" ppl have WAY more fun... in fact, the even just the word "weird" is so Intense It Should Be Capitalized!! c",) Weird!!)

Anyways... so ------ yeah.

If you know me fairly well, you know I have a slightly less than normal "sleep" cycle... practically non-existent to down right Narcoleptic. Yeah, it's weird... so far the meds haven't helped much.... still working on that.....

What many of you may not know is what happens every now-and-then when I get bored being awake all by myself in the wee hours of the morning....


So, while the following situation isn't par normal for every night.... it really isn't that far of a stretch as far as what boredom can lead me to do. -.^

3:00 AM - I am going to my first Anime convention later today, Saturday as part of a class field trip, and I am still, at 4:31 AM, debating whether to wear a costume or not. See, the only remotely non-traditional clothes I have with me in Findlay consist of exactly one hoop skirt, and one silver LOTR style elf dress with white see-through medieval sleeves and a rather shocking green elvish cape... two of the three, obviously go together.....

But I wanted to see what the hoop-skirt would look like underneath the silver dress..... yeah.... the only really good mirror for seeing most of one's person, happens to be on the ground floor of my apartment building.... at 3:?? in the morning, I thought I was pretty safe. Didn't see anyone on the way down, but then as I was getting ready to go back up to my apartment, I heard the outside door opening.

(I forgot to mention that with the aforementioned outfit, I was also wearing hot pink knee socks, and blue/white/green/pink Tommy flip-flops..... visible beneath the hem of the dress.....)

By this point, I had also diverged myself of the hoop-skirt, and had it "slung" over one arm, and I had ditched the flip-flops next to the wall in the hallway. Upon hearing the return of one of my neighbors, I pulled a perfect copy of the "duck-and-cover" military action. Once I heard them go up the elevator, I presumed the coast was clear, flung myself back into my flip-flops and made a dash for the elevator.

While I was passing the outdoor entrance, I looked over ---- and there were two Cantonese guys, one of whom lives on the 2nd floor. Yeah... I'm not quite sure what they thought, but it was probably along the lines of huge ???s floating around their heads.... they decided to take the stairs.....

Since I've still got the hoop-skirt, and I've already been "spotted" I though, heck, I may as well put this in the car now, since I don't really want to haul it around in broad daylight. (Simple logic, right?!??!!?)

After ridding myself of said hoop-skirt I then wanted to see what all was offered at what appears to be an internet cafe in the building across the street... I figured, "They'll be closed by now, and I can take a leisurely look at what they've got offered."

Yeah, both my apt, and this place happen to be on Main St... and as dead as Findlay is after 8 at night, there are still a few cars roaming around at 3:15 on a Saturday morning. So I hid behind a convenient mail drop-off box behind some pretty wrought-iron fire-escape stairs. Once they had passed, I made my move around the corner onto Main St. and immediately halted. The light from the place was still streaming out of the glass front windows....

I started to inch towards it to "nonchalantly" walk past in my costume, when suddenly some kid comes popping out the front door!! O.O I turn in a swirl of lime-green cool cape-i-ness, and burn a trail back to my apt building.

I can just imagine what that poor kid must have been thinking..... "??!!?!??!??!?!?!?! What was that?!?!?!" Hope he wasn't too weirded out....

Anyways, so that's how I ended up here, now at 4:56 AM just finishing a thoroughly pointless post...

Now... I must slee................
