I feel high. I feel drunk. I feel spacey. And it's all due to a migraine fugue and an altered sleep schedule. I have no doubt my brain shall reset sometime this week, but in the meantime, I'm on one hell of a ride.

I LARPed last night. No regular game afterwards, but no matter. I ended up talking until 3:30 in the morning, and coming home during my favourite time of day. 4 am is the best time. I have the city pretty much to myself. It's just me, a sleeping city, and wide-awake nature. The rabbits often come out at night, and they'll sit stock-still in lawns, staring at me and chewing cud.

When I got home, I sat at my computer for a minute to unwind before going to bed, and the phone rang. It was a drunk. I told him he had the wrong number, and he slurred out an apology before hanging up. He didn't call back.

Link dump time.

Steampunk Monitor Mod: Someone turned a flatscreen monitor into a thing of beauty.

American Brothers Gored in Bull Run: They're ok, but you wouldn't necessarily guess it from the photo. OUCH (thanks,

gha5t)!

A Gate-Crasher's Change of Heart: Maybe the best way to give a mugger a change of heart is to give him a nice glass of Chateau Malescot St-Exupéry.

Stroszek - Dancing Chicken: The bizarre and famous ending of Werner Herzog's 1977 feature film. Someone said this is the last thing Ian Curtis watched before killing himself. Is this true?

Crane Shot: Serendipitous confabulation of technology and heavenly bodies (thanks,

f00dave).

Oh. I need a nap, asap. The sleep deprivation is catcing up with me, big-time.
