Feeling kind of jittery today, for some reason. Not anxious, exactly - there's no clutching sensation in my chest or repetitive thought patterns. Just...slightly hollow inside, with a lot of extra energy. Honestly, it's not that different from the way I feel when my blood sugar's crashing and I need food badly, except that I've eaten a decent amount of food today so I can't imagine that's the problem. It's mostly just annoying, as it's making it rather difficult to focus on anything.

Re-dyed my hair Atomic Turquoise. Learned two things from the process - [a] Don't do your hair right before work, even if you think you have plenty of time, as chances are it'll take longer than you intended and you'll be late, and [b] turquoise is not my best color. Not awful by a long stretch, just...not great, especially after how awesome the Purple Haze came out. It probably didn't help that I was rushing and only left it in for half an hour, so I got more of a pastel shade than the nice vibrant color I like.

I badly need to cut my hair - the faded-ends problem is becoming more noticeable, and my hair's long enough that I don't always have enough dye in the single pot to redo them. And I need to give the bleach a rest too; when I was combing the dye through my hair I had a small-but-significant chunk come right out. So I'm thinking that progressively-darker shades of blue over the next couple of weeks will be the plan.

Augh. I need to get back to work, but even more I need my focus back. Does anybody have a Calminex I could take?

(Also, I am discovering that excess nervous energy + pet peeves is not a good combination. There's a woman out in the gallery who keeps clearing her throat, and I'm fighting the temptation to poke my head out the office door and yell "For God's sake, just cough it up already!")

Man, I haven't thought about those commercials in *ages*. When they came out I was in high school band, and I remember two of my classmates having a spirited discussion as to whether the giant Alp horn was a real thing. The teacher, who was one of those quiet-but-awesome types, appeared to take no notice of them but came in the next morning with an honest-to-god eight-foot-long Alp horn, and proceeded to demonstrate how to reenact the commercials. :D

That must've been the awesomest day ever. Did you get to try it out?

Unfortunately no; after the demonstration it was back to painfully learning the Aladdin medley we were working on. But it was a pretty awesome class on the whole, largely because of our teacher. I wonder how he's doing, these days?
