Sleep Deprivation and Complex Dynamics

I had a very hard time sleeping last night. I'm not sure why. Perhaps
it was the heat, although I was fairly comfortable with a fan right
on me.

Usually when I don't sleep, I start to hallucinate. I've known this
for some time. But now, given recent events (i.e. the earlier post
about possible schizophrenic tendencies), I found it odd that I was
so very tired this morning, and have had no hallucinations.

I'm wondering if there is a balance. Perhaps eight hours is too much
sleep, and I need to have less sleep in order to not hallucinate. Or
perhaps I just need to see a shrink and take some medication. Which I
am loathe to do.

On a lighter note, the boss was supposed to be gone today, but he
showed up early asking for help. Seems he's one of those people who
rely on the browser to store all of his passwords, and the browser
munged it up. He was hoping that I could fix it, but I explained to
him that I could do it in Linux, but probably not Windows. My friend
has much more experience in Windows. He tried, but we just ended up
entering them as he could recall them.

Now, he's off on holiday, and we are in anarchy mode. I love chaos,
and I'm not sure why. My love of chaos pushed me into studying
complex dynamics in college. Which is where I met Jonathan, whom I
suspect also doesn't exist. And I met a few people who do exist.

And finally, today is Billboard day, when Billboard Magazine releases
the hits of the last week (even though they date them for the
following week). I listen to every new entry just to see if I like
it. I've noticed a trend with the lists. I almost never like anything
on their Hot 100 list. I tend to like stuff on their Rock lists and
their Dance lists (EDM and Dance Club lists, mostly). The Alternative
lists ("Alternative" and "Adult Alternative") are very similar to the
Rock lists.

By the way, I don't know if I mentioned this in an earlier post, but
I have synaesthesia. My sister has it, too (and we were adopted from
different families). They say that about 1 in 20 people have it, but
most people don't know it. I didn't even know there was a word for it
until about ten years ago. And I think it's related to being a bit
"on the spectrum" (Asperger's).

My phone and my wireless headphones are done charging now. I'm going
to go eat some of that Japanese candy with the edible rice wrappers.
