A day to feel like a zombie...
|
So, I went to bed last night at 10 pm... and woke up at 2 am and couldn't get back to sleep. I have been awake for a bit over six hours right now and am not looking forward to the state of my consciousness come the end of the work day.

A variant that hits occasionally is that I go to bed, dead tired, am asleep almost instantly ... and wake up only fifteen or twenty minutes later ... just barely refreshed enough that I can't get back to sleep. ----- Big Brother is watching you. And damn, you are so bloody BORING.
Heh.
Well, I made it through the day, got home, did our 9 PM production push for the website, and then managed to crash. I got about 8 hours and in the immortal words of John Astin, "I'm feeling much better now." -- Bob --------- Then the horns kicked in... ...and my shoes began to squeak.
At least you don't have this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed_s ... e_disorder
I very well may have that because it describes my sleep issues to a fraggin' T. |
