So I think I may have started to... slightly learn my lesson when it comes to my inability to sleep "normally". I just have to go to sleep if I get the slightest inclination at a reasonable time. I was feeling pretty drowsy around 1130 or so, laid in bed - not to sleep, but to just get under the covers and the computer didn't seem especially appealing [and I was waiting for Jayson to finish battling his computer, I didn't want to continue watching the show we were enjoying without him] and despite the fact that I was quite tired, and I didn't sleep then I haven't been able to settle my mind/body enough to fall asleep. I read my book for a while [Vernor Vinge's "A Fire Upon The Deep" which is pretty darn good. If you like scifi and strange alien races this book is for you.] and it didn't help. I took a melatonin despite the fact I know it'll make me feel ass-y tomorrow [today, whatever.]
Need to clean pretty hard core, as Jayson's parents are coming by to give us a couch and a bed, which is pretty sweet. Sweet on both levels! I am excited, as that means sleeping on something that isn't a futon, and having a couch... that isn't also, a futon [the 'couch' futon doesn't even have a frame]. Hopefully I can wake up at a reasonable time to get some stuff done... I would be horribly embarrassed if the place was a wreck with his parents first visit since I moved in.
So cold, so very cold. I need to figure out my pants situation soon, I've gained enough wait that even the pair that do fit me are quite tight at this point. They were always a bit tight but now I can't easily fit my wallet in my pocket. On one hand, it's nice to not be terribly underweight any more, on the other hand... goddamn I need to do some exercise and make some of this weight into muscle instead of fat.
Going to go back to reading and hope that sleep overtakes me.
