This is the penalty for being a lazy ass.

That, and I need not to take naps EVER.

I came home from work and threw on a movie. Because neither of the roommates were home, I pretty much passed out for at least half an hour in the middle. Which so completely reset my exhaustion to the point that when I went to bed at one am, I was utterly unable to sleep. I also had a headache from lack of sleep and a back ache from not lying down enough to sleep. It was a fun night, let me tell you.

By the time it go to be 3 am, I gave up. I wasn't even tired from having my eyes closed. They just popped right open. So I went and grabbed my Farscape DVDs and picked up from where I'd left off on my rewatch. I got two episodes finished and finally started to drift off in the second, so I got to nod off around 5.

My sleep schedule, from being sick and not exercising, totally sucks right now. I need to get back to being healthy and using the damned elliptical again so I can not die of total exhaustion. For now, I need caffeine. I grabbed a soda on my way in, and of course the machine dispensed a warm one. Fantastic.

Ugh! I hope you are able to catch up on some sleep tonight and feel much better soon!

I just have to not let myself nap at all today and I might be okay. Then I can crash really hard tonight, and hopefully be refreshed tomorrow. It's just the cough needs to stop being a problem. It's past the phlegm stage and in the ticklish stage, which is way more annoying, actually. Thanks for the good wishes. I'll need 'em.

The ticklish stage is torture! I wish I knew a magic remedy (but if I did, I would be swimming in money).

Just a random thing: a LOT of people have been posting about insomnia this week!

I noticed that, too! Must be the DST changeover or the rapidly changing weather...

I vote a little of both =-þ

Dude, DST has TOTALLY messed up my sleep schedule. Just one hour? I had less of a problem overcoming 12 hours of jetlag from Hong Kong. I'm all off balance and awake at weird hours.

The bizarre thing for me has been how awake I am once I get going for the day, but the second I'm home, it's boom, dead asleep on couch for nap. Then awake until at least three. WTF? I am tired emotionally and achy but not able to sleep unless it's in my narcoleptic crashes or at 4 am??
