No Rest for the Wicked

Sometimes my brain goes to a creative place where my brain feels like there is a massive amount of information flowing through it but I have no idea what it means or what to do with it. Does this make any sense to anyone but me? I feel like I should be creative but not sure how. Also, I am not even sure what I am thinking because there is so much going on in there. When this happens most generally I make plans, to do lists, google a million recipes, make a menu plan, an organizationional plan, and etc. I will likely be up for hours with my plans. Only tonight I cannot figure out what exactly I should be doing. It's times like this I wonder if I have the whole manic thing that so many before me have.....or maybe I just over think things. It doesn't really happen enough for me to consider a professional but tonight its driving me crazy. I feel like I need to be doing something but there is nothing to do except cleaning could always be done. The only problem is that I can think of three things that need cleaned : dishes, laundry, and the walls. Dishes would wake up the sick, grumpy guy that has to work tomorrow. Laundry wakes the baby.....and as soon as the kid spending the night tells his mom that his friend's mom stays up all night scrubbing walls then she thinks I am some sort of meth head and never let's him come back. So I just decided to write my thoughts down. How do you occupy your time when everyone is sleeping and you are wide awake?
