wired
Hopped up, alert
Wired means connected by wires, especially to an electrical system or network: The house is wired for sound.
Someone who is wired is nervously energetic or overstimulated, often from caffeine or drugs: I had three espressos and I'm completely wired.
To be wired into something is to be deeply connected to it: She's wired into the local art scene.
Wired can also mean innately predisposed: Humans are wired to seek social connection. (Capitalized Wired is the technology magazine.)
