9/14/2009 7:02:17 PM

and here i sit, yet another night, unable to sleep.

last night i actually got around 5 hours... but of course! plagued with just freaking lovely dreams. my husband woke me up this morning all worried because i was sweating and clinching my hair in my hands. yay. *sigh*

9/16/2009 12:28:02 AM

and i'm with you again


complete with my twitchy eye and everything

9/16/2009 12:29:21 AM

well hell, at least i have good company

maybe i'll try drinking again tomorrow night. tho last week's episode left a bit to be desired re: hangover.

9/16/2009 12:31:58 AM

i had 2.5 beers....just enough to make me tired


but i can't sleep

9/16/2009 12:33:42 AM

i'm bummed out that i yet again told myself i'd quit doing a), b), and c). and by the end of the day that doesnt happen. thats like a daily occurance with me

9/16/2009 12:33:49 AM

9/16/2009 12:33:51 AM

dont beat yourself up over it. it took me a long time to quit a, b, and c myself (work was a primary motivator). now i just occasionally abuse alcohol, gamble, and can't sleep. yay.

9/16/2009 12:37:46 AM

I'm hoping I sleep tonight.

9/16/2009 12:40:31 AM

i was watching "super high me" last night on netflix and there was something in that movie that struck a nerve. i even like hid my cigarettes last night

9/16/2009 12:41:02 AM

it seems like if I sleep well, ScHpEnXeL doesn't (and vice versa)

so I'm letting him sleep tonight

9/16/2009 3:55:21 AM

9/16/2009 4:16:33 AM

9/17/2009 4:21:35 AM

I'm finally tired enough to fall asleep, but I know if I go to bed I'll sleep through my alarm so I have to stay up

9/17/2009 4:22:01 AM

my sleep schedule is getting kinda better....i think?

now i can at least fall asleep around 12 or 1 but i wake up at freaking 4am everyday. then i'm awake until like 7 or so until i can fall back to sleep.

if i could just sleep like 6 hours straight i'd be happy

9/17/2009 4:23:43 AM

i'm gonna see if i can leave work at 6am. night audit is so dead.

9/17/2009 5:21:08 AM

and so the cycle continues. 1 night 1-2 hours, then the next night 4-6 hrs BUT:

i'm at work now, and feeling tired as shit. then i'll get home and be up til probably like 10am and then sleep until like 6, therefore missing all the day

9/18/2009 4:12:14 AM

rome, only here for another 2 days

on a good note, copious amounts of drinking has gotten me back on a normal sleep schedule

9/20/2009 10:06:53 AM

If I crash right now, which I am fast doing, I'll be posting in here tonight.

9/20/2009 3:12:06 PM

took 2 tylenol pm yesterday. big mistake...i slept or 12 hours. so i'll probably be up til about 6 today

[Edited on September 22, 2009 at 2:30 AM. Reason : which is in no way insomnia]

9/22/2009 2:30:19 AM

so i think my body is operating on a 30 hour day or something? sleep longer but awake longer

9/24/2009 2:15:11 AM

meh my body is just operating on a 2-3 hour per night sleep pattern. so exhausting. tho last night i did manage 5 hrs.

[Edited on September 24, 2009 at 2:28 AM. Reason : going to try to go to sleep in a few]

9/24/2009 2:28:05 AM

present.

i tried sleeping pills the other night, first time ever.

put me to sleep for 3 hrs., then i was awake for 3 hours, then i slept 3 more.

felt like crap the next day

never again.

9/24/2009 2:33:27 AM

I decided to quit caffeine on Sunday to see if it would help me sleep more soundly. I was drinking around 2-3 cups of coffee in the morning, plus a can of diet coke at lunch.

Without caffeine, I find myself wanting a nap around 1 or 2 pm, but on a positive note, I've gotten awesome sleep!

Last night I went to bed at 8:45 pm and woke up at 7 am, which is extreme, but it felt really good to catch up after so many restless nights.

9/24/2009 10:18:30 AM

AW COME ON!!!

9/27/2009 4:02:08 AM

it just takes a while to calm down after going out dancing with the girls...

[Edited on September 27, 2009 at 4:12 AM. Reason : ]

9/27/2009 4:12:06 AM

9/27/2009 4:12:26 AM
