Okay, so now I am convinced there's something seriously wrong with me. No, it's not insomnia--if I made the effort to go to bed, I'm sure I would fall asleep right away! I just get involved in what I'm doing at night, and sleep seems like such a boring alternative activity! Am I just a big, irresponsible kid? Don't answer that--at least not in those terms! Let's go with euphemistic flattery such as, "young at heart and bursting with endless enthusiasm!"If you aren't quite sure what I'm referring to, scroll down the page to my first entry, which I posted here just last night. It was 2:00 a.m., and I was airing confessions of a terrible vice which victimizes me (of course I'm a victim--it's not MY fault!) I stay up late at night, then feel less than chipper & chirpy in the morning. Well, I guess I don't have to worry about that tonight, because it IS morning. No, not yet, but if I continue with this blog it will be. I have to get up at 6:00, and it's now 3:30. I may as well just rest my head on this desk. Hey, that would eliminate the need for changing my clothes, fixing the bed back up in the morning, etc... Who's the dummy now, huh?Wherever I fall asleep, there's one thing that we can be sure of; when I am forced awake against my wishes at 6:00 a.m., I'll once again be saying, "I'm never going to do that again!" How do I know that? Experience, dear Friends. Experience.And so, thus ends another blog p ZZZZzzzzzzz
Tonight I kept finding stuff online that I wanted to check into later. I thought I'd post them to my blog, but this program (blogger. com) has changed its format. Rather than take a chance on making a mistake with my old blog, I thought I'd just create a new one with their new program.
But...by the time I set it up and wrote my introduction, I was too tired to add the messages I originally planned on putting here.
By the way, it was difficult finding a name for this blog. I think every name possible was already used up! Are there that many blogs already established? People sure do have a lot to say!
Here's a website with different variations of the name, "Margaret" & "Margie"
They're in a variety of different languages. You can look up any name, of course.

I didn't plan on naming this new blog "The Music Inside". In fact, I didn't plan on starting a new blog! It's almost 2:00 in the morning, and if I possessed even an iota of good sense, I wouldn't be undertaking such a project; I'd be asleep like all the "normal" people in the world!But this is me, and I've known myself for way too long to expect anything other than this eccentric behavior! Of course, tomorrow morning I'll regret this. I always do. You know how it goes. Unsympathetic to my situation, that evil alarm clock will order me to get up before the sun does. Feeling really, well...bad, I'll drop my body off the side of the bed groaning something along the lines of "I'll never, ever stay up that late again!" (I think I recall saying that once or twice in the past. Twenty-five, maybe. Perhaps fifty. I haven't really been counting.)The suffering that I endure at daybreak isn't the worst part, though. That's just a flavor of what's ahead for me. Looking as if I've been out drinking all night isn't an issue at all. That's a simple cosmetic problem that a tad bit of makeup could fix up in a jiff!No, for me the worst part is shuffling around all day in that zombie-like state; unable to think, and not even wanting to; being unmotivated to do anything, and not having the physical energy to pour myself a bowl of Cheerios.And you know what I've discovered? We've been lied to for the past 100 years or so. Speaking from personal experience, I can tell you that a cup of coffee is not that magic cure that brings a person to a state of being instantly awake! Not even a Starbucks triple espresso's gonna do it for me tomorrow. (It'll taste damn good, though!)Hey, guess what. I didn't come here to say any of this! Nothing I've written is why I'm here! I'd promise to write that tomorrow, but, well, you know me. And if you don't, then let me share this tidbit: I'm a procrastinator. As sure as I'll wake up feeling like shit tomorrow, I also will not ever return to this page with the very message I arrived here tonight to deliver. So much for that New Year's Resolution. Well, I've accomplished one thing. I already have next year's New Year's resolutions listed! #1: Go to bed at normal hours#2: Stop procrastinating#3: Keep your promises to post messages to your blogsHappy 2007 Everybody!The Sandman Cometh
