Daylight Savings Time? Totally messing with my head.

So needless to say the time change is seriously affecting my sleeping/eating/going outside and doing things schedule. It seems like forever since it was light outside past 6pm, and so now my body thinks that everything has just shifted but I should still be relying on visual cues to say, eat dinner and whatnot. That and it really doesn't help that it changes the week of spring break, when my body is all messed up from no routine and staying up late and getting up even later and eating whenever I remember to...

As a consequence we've been eating anywhere from 7:30-9:30pm, which really isn't good. I won't go into details, but I really need to get back into a routine and stop eating meals that consist mainly of starches. And now that the weather is nice I can finally go outside and walk around in the sun! Now I just have to worry about the skin cancer...

I'm not a hypochondriac, I'm just cautious.

Weeks of papers and studying for midterms and finding out that I'm now getting sick from coffee (NOT a welcomed realization), followed by a week of lounging, watching movies, watching the Sopranos, playing Perfect Dark, and raking leaves. And then of course back to writing a paper and doing homework for this week, but hey, there are much more unpleasant things than going to school.

But it's so beautiful outside! It's like spring has finally come around bringing all the budding trees and flowers and greenness (and allergies) with it. I hope that this time I'll have more motivation to get out and experience it like I used to, and not just sit inside in front of a computer all day (I'm doomed!).

Things that need to be done: get worms from family and set up compost, look into prices on plants and such for xeriscaping, washing the floors/general cleaning of the house. Flamenco performances this weekend, flamenco paper, evolutionary psych paper, reading... the usual.

On more of a constructive note, I've really gotten into Lifehacker as a general good-stuff-to-know blog, and damn if those people don't find awesome workarounds for things that normally drive me crazy. Until I convert that Wordpress template into straight HTML I won't put any links up, but when I do there will be a lot of useful links on the sidebars. Trust me.

And now it's time for the lazy but oh so good dinner of tamales and rice! (yeah, college meals... so shoot me (or give me cooking lessons!))
