Late Friday Night, no Family and Hanging on the Couch
It is about 12:10 AM. This is late for the man who has munchkins or in my case munchkin. But this week the munchkin is on a west coast roadtrip with mother in tow so I am on the couch and contemplating what to do next.
Lone week should be sleeping week but strange and unwelcome insomnia is causing bed fear - i.e. the strange compulsion to do anything but go to the room of sleeping and the bed. I also have TV ennui which is the feeling that TV is a welcome way to empty brain of useful thinking. TV lurks on the wall like bed in the room - sort of alluring but kind of dirty too (I leave choice of apt metaphor to reader of blog).
Consequently I am surfing about looking at music blogs and listening to Myspace streaming music from my buddy Nicolas's band Long Voyage based in Leipzig Germany. Highly recommended lo-fi folk:

I think being in front of a computer all day at work makes one a bit obsessive. In many ways I want to get rid of this laptop and go to bed or do something more apropos for a bachelor on a Friday night.
Actually I probably don't.
It is now 12:20 AM.
