I've clearly got Rome on the brain

Last night, possibly this morning? I dreamed I was interviewing Kevin McKidd (Lucius Vorenus) about what he's been doing since Rome (Journeyman and Grey's Anatomy) and how he feels about the possibility of a Rome movie.

Nice guy. Sexy accent. Seemed to be excited about the Rome movie, if not exactly looking forward to the hours of working out and ancient military training again.

I have to wonder how accurate that dream is, lol, and wonder what I have to bribe my subconscious with to get a few minutes alone with Ray Stevenson tomorrow night... >;)

Soothing the savage beast

A little bit of an Andee's Mental Health PSA:

I've figured out that I pretty much NEED to have music on at all times to occupy the bits of my brain that keep me from functioning properly. I've been looking at how I operate in "silence" and how I operate with music on and yeah, there is a huge difference. So until I can get the littles that are constantly in a state of freakout back on their leashes, I'm pretty much not allowed to operate in silence anymore.

If you feel like helping me out with this:

• If you're physically around me, I seem cranky and agitated, and you don't feel like doing the monkey dance to keep me entertained, tell me to go put iTunes or Pandora on.
  
  
• This also goes for if you run into me in the wide wide world - I'm going to be stopping at $mall on my way home today and getting a new pair of Sony earmuffs just for this reason, so if you see me out and about and alone, I should have them on, or at least around my neck. If not, yell at me.
  
  
• If you're online and I seem to be tweaking out (redflag posts to either twitter, LJ or IM) pop quickly to my last.fm profile and make sure that it says "Listening Now..." under Recently Listened tracks. If it doesn't, tell me to put iTunes or Pandora on and go do something productive.

I'm gonna try this out for the month of April and see if things go any better than they have in the first quarter of 2010. While I'm kinda annoyed that I have to do this to force my head to reset itself, I kinda have to suck it up and do something because I super can't afford to lie around wallowing in my own non-functional anymore.
