Video games must be rotting my brain

How else can explain inexplicably forgetting not one, but two appointments today? I hit the snooze button extra times this morning only to have to rush around my apartment in whirl of teeth-brushing, cat-feeding, lunch-packing madness because I forgot I had a doctor's appointment at 9:30. Which I was fifteen minutes late for despite taking a cab up to work. The only good news about that is that because I was late, my appointment started almost right away, as opposed to making me wait fifteen-twenty minutes like they usually do.

I set about making a hundred plans for after work, mostly involving getting my ass back on the exercise bike after going to the grocery store (I think it's been, like, two weeks since last I set foot in one). Which will all have to wait now, seeing as I promised weeks ago to catch up with an old high school friend for dinner. At least she texted me today, or I'd have left her hanging wherever. I need to remember to put these things in my calendar. Although I'm pretty sure that I did put the doctor's appointment in my calendar, and I forgot it anyway, and if I could remember things well enough I to put them in the calendar, I wouldn't need the calendar in the first place.

Okay, so maybe I can't stay up until 4 am playing Mass Effect without consequences. Duly noted. Hey, brain, how do we feel about staying up all night/morning playing House of the Dead: Overkill? Surely, that can't be as bad.

Yes, I suspect staying up to four and extra missing hour of sleep from DST might have something to do with it. :)

I'm sure it must be something else. I mean, what's the loss of an extra two-three hours of sleep, really?

An alternate explanation: You're about to turn 30!

I swear, when Mass Effect games come out, I get a glimpse of what it's like to live your life: old and chronically sleep deprived.

(Zing!)

You wound me.

I had to rush around getting for work after sleeping in a little later than I maybe should have this morning! Glad now harm was done and you got right in for your doctor appointment. Reminds me a little how I used to try and arrive at concert venues at the time the door were scheduled to open even though the show wouldn't start for another half hour to an hour. : )

Rushing around in the morning is never conducive to getting shit done correctly. Somehow I managed, but I won't count on that again. I'm sure I've forgotten something at home today...

Wow, there is an impressive number of typos in that comment I left. Maybe I had more to drink than I thought I did last night.
