scene: the barge, the sleeping loft, well before dawn

body: Good morning! Rise and shine!
me (looks around): It's not morning. Surely, it is far too early to be morning.
body: C'mon, up and at 'em!
me (burrows face into pillow)
(after an extended period of failing to fall asleep)
body: Not getting out of it that easy! It's morning!
me: No, it's not. It's dark. I went to bed six hours ago. And I don't have to be anywhere for hours yet. Ergo, not morning.
body: But you're not tired at all. In fact, you're rarin' to go!
me: No, I'm suffering from a surfeit of adrenaline. Six hours isn't enough sleep, and I'm being a good kitty and taking care of myself.
body: For crying out loud, you spent most of yesterday sitting around with an ice pack on your neck. How much sleep could you possibly need!
me: And I felt wretched. And exhausted. So I should sleep.
body: The inflamatory response is gone, and you spent most of yesterday lazing around. If you want to sleep, you have to train. GET UP!
me: ...
me: What about my commute? Doesn't that count?
body: pshaw! Twenty minutes on the bike. Barely enough to get your blood moving, much less break a sweat!

So I got up. I mean, it's not that I don't have sympathy when people tell me how sick it is that I'm a morning person. Sometimes it seems pretty sick even to me. Maybe I should join the rowing club.

In other news... I sat in the evil theatre style seats in evolutionary genetics again, and this time instead of just getting sore, my neck went out. So I got that worked on, which helped, but left it all inflamed, and indeed I spent most of yesterday sitting around with an ice pack on my neck, too sore to be able to concentrate. (I have an ice pack on my neck as I write this, but I'm doing better, thanks.) While I'm not actually behind in anything, I'm not happy with the amoung of studying I've been able to do. I guess I should be grateful for my relatively light class load this quarter.

And the latest bits are broken in exactly the same way with regard to hierarchies built out of composite keys.
