Can't Sleep...

Jun 15, 2009 06:15

I don't get it. No matter how hard I try to fix my sleeping schedule, it just gets messed up all over again...its now 6am, and after several hours of lying in bed, tossing and turning..I just couldn't fall asleep..

Too much on my mind perhaps? There's been some crap bugging me lately, so I guess thats what could be contributing to this. I tend to think about everything and anything when my head hits the pillow, and I wish I knew how to shut my brain up...insecurities creep up on me, small little things bother me and wrack my brain...

I was thinking about heading out to a yoga class later on today (4pm), but I'm not so sure I'll have the energy by then...I found a place that does $5 community yoga classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays..I'm thinking about checking one out- I suppose I could try again on Wednesday, since I have other shit to do today...

I think exercise is something that could help me sleep better at night- but its impossible to find something going on that I enjoy during the day. And really, I'm far too poor to be joining a gym (especially if I have to take public transportation to get to it...). Running around the neighborhood is out for me, since I don't feel comfortable doing that in my neighborhood...not to mention the not being able to carry much with me in that sort of situation...and I kind of need to be able to get sugar into me should my blood sugar go low during exercise..

I used to play volleyball prettymuch year round when I was in high school. I was part of my school's team, a Junior Olympics league (typically ran winter-spring), and usually 1-2 summer leagues. Not to mention that I also did track and field during the spring season, and Nordic Skied during the winter season. So I used to exercise 5-6 days a week. Once college hit, it was down to 2-3 days a week, when I could fit it in between my busy school schedule. Though having to run around campus in order to make 10 classes, 3 vocal groups, Pride meetings (I was VP and then President, so there was plenty to do!), MENC meetings, and later on, RA duties, could probably count as exercise... I still made an attempt to join the inter mural volleyball team, and hit their gym every so often.

Now? I sit around all day, doing nothing. My DDR games were stolen, our arcade was torn down so I can't even walk over there to play...I have no job, I have hardly any money to go out too often...no bike, nothing. I've been incredibly bored with everything lately...I just don't know what to do anymore. I want to exercise. I want to be able to sleep better... I want to stop feeling so goddamn bored...

Though in other, unrelated, news, I played my first night of D&D 4th Edition this evening, and it was actually a *lot* of fun. I'm looking forward to continuing with this campaign, with any luck.
