Insomnia.

This is ridiculous.

just plain ridiculous

:-(

tbh im still @ the just got home, sorta drunk, not all tired, i wish i had somethin to eat in my apt phase of the evening

ah see I'm at the holy shit I have to get up in five hours why the hell can't I sleep phase

Right, got in, quite tired, about 8pm.

Dozed a bit, woke up, dozed again, decided to change out me clothes about 10pm, next thing it's six thirty am, and feeling much better hray!

the combination of unemployment and insomnia = absolutely lunatic sleeping schedule. Waking up too late to go to the post office, or worse, the grocery store.

yeah i think my unemployment and lack of schedule are really screwing with the sleep, even if i do make an effort to exercise regularly. and now the heat is not helping.

i will pray for u, tza

ugggghhh i hate it i hate it i hate it

mmmha

hey east coast: you are worse than I am! get thee to bed!

I'm on the west coast now hence the insomnia partly

you can find the damndest things in the bible at this hour

Ok at least you have a good excuse! Those gideons say the darndest things!

what up yall

i'm going to stl tomorrow and then DC for the weekend then miami for 3 weeks but i gotta make it through the next 7 hours

deuteronomy 28:67 that is what's up

just spent way too much time looking for a certain passage wherein some dude is commanded (by david or solomon?) to sleep till midday so that he does not afflict himself upon society. but i can't find it.

i only remember it because linus once quoted it to charlie brown.

Waking up too late to go to the post office, or worse, the grocery store.

You don't have 24 hour supermarkets where you are?

aw <3 that makes me want to read the bible!
mostly bc I like to sleep til midday

couldn't find that passage either but I did enjoy 1 Kings 21:19

Say to him, 'This is what the LORD says: Have you not murdered a man and seized his property?' Then say to him, 'This is what the LORD says: In the place where dogs licked up Naboth's blood, dogs will lick up your blood — yes, yours!'

when I was kindergarten, I went over to a classmate's house after school for daycare because both my parents worked full time. There was mandatory naptime, and in order to enforce the naptime, each kid had to stay in a separate room during that time. I ended up in a room that had the Young Person's Illustrated Bible ... and I'd read it instead of taking a nap, because I would never be tired. The illustrations were all Hanna Barbera-ish.

almost 4 ugh

4:15 ... I was yawning around 2:30 ... then I ended up rating netflix movies for about half an hour.

I think I finally got to sleep somewhere around 2:30 - 3:00. Of course, then I overslept and was an hour late to work. Upon leaving my building, I made it down the stairs and almost to the front door before realizing that I WASN'T WEARING ANY SHOES. That's right, I was about to go to work barefoot. Oy.

Going to give this a go tonight. Makes a lot of sense to me that my wrecked sleeping pattern could be linked to my wrecked eating pattern.

Dear Warm Glass Of Milk Technique,

You taste like fucking cheese or something. I gotta go to work.

Sincerely,

Rabies

i have to fix this shit.
i am totally not functional today. ughhhh.

:-( it's back

ughhhhhhhhhhhhh

i just had a 2 hour nap

is that gloating or

no, just evidence of a messed up sleep pattern

i rarely if ever nap. even when i was at my most sleep deprived (elisabeth basically keeping me up for a YEAR). now, having mild panic attacks and elisabeth still waking up, have deprived me of sleep. not as bad as ¨*that* horrendous year but still.... not good for general mood. :-(

the worst is actually apnea though: you THINK you are sleeping enuff but you aren't of course. so you kinda get mad: BUH BUH i am having eight hrs of sleep and more!

i was up forever and finally took 1/2 valium and eventually fell half asleep and then overslept in the morning. i have to be up at 5 tomorrow. it's gonna suck trying to go to bed tonight!

the worst thing about insomnia is how everything you think you have a handle on comes back and slaps you in the face every time you try to close your eyes and makes you more and more stressed out about not sleeping AND all the other shit in your life so that you're even less likely to sleep!

the nap i'm gonna take in like five minutes is a really bad idea

theresa, stop describing my sleepless nights! :-)good luck w sleep. wish i cld give you some hot milk and read you a bedtime story. :-)

aw, thanks.
last night i drank hot tea and watched some opera and then i got in bed and POOF awaakkkeeee forever. sigh.

Woke up at 4 this morning and couldn't get back to sleep, rolled out at 5 and watched the sky get light. When I wake up because I'm too hot, I can never get back to sleep -- my thoughts start racing around too fast for me to beat them into submission.

Why is it always 4? It feels like it.

Whyyyy are there city workers with leaf blowers outside my window at 2:30 am

yyyyyyy

as sono as i lie down i start to get irritable aches and pains in shoulders, ankles, wherever. never a twinge when i'm upright, but the merest niggle when i'm tryin to sleep will keep me awake for hours.

I CAN'T FUCKING SLEEP

abt four hours in the last three days

i keep not being able to fall asleep til 4 :(
