My good old friend insomnia
Nov. 19th, 2003 12:36 amYes, it's back. The hours of rolling in bed, getting more and more frustrated as minutes tick by. I can hear ma snoring and the cats are quietly lounging here and there, probably asleep.
And I'm wide awake.
Went to bed early. Eternal optimist, I thought I'd get sleep as early as 10pm. Hah. I was actually able to fall asleep, but like two minutes after, the phone rang. After a brief conversation with a friend, I was suddenly wide awake.
Did lotsa things that usually make me fall asleep. Including walking around the flat, eating, watching some of the special features on my BoB DVDs. Thought about writing. Listened to music.
And here I am, awake.
It wouldn't be such a big deal if I weren't going to work early tomorrow. Thank all the gods I don't have a monster day, the usual 9 am to 10 pm Wednesday. Am thrilled. I can deal with little sleep for eight hours of work, especially when we have meetings till noon.
I just hate working when I'm tired. I always get cranky and lose what little patience I have left. With the monster kids and my colleagues.
Gah.
