Sleep update
Well, I made it until 3:30 in the morning. At 3 am I took a full melatonin. I know they don't work for everyone but they do a pretty good job of knocking me out. When I was going through my meltdown and not getting enough sleep I'd take 1/3 of one so I wouldn't be a total zombie the next day.
Other than a couple of times I woke up to pee but then went right back to sleep, I managed to sleep until 11:30 this morning. 8 hours of sleep - kinda rare for me - and right now I'm pretty groggy. I have to be at work in 9 hours and I won't have a chance for sleep for another 21 hours. *headdesk* I should probably try to take a nap this afternoon but I usually can't nap during the day anymore.
On the good news: Since I had such a hard time writing my new fic and it felt so forced sometimes I felt a little iffy about the quality. I'm thrilled I'm getting such positive responses on my new fic.
LOL! My brother called me about 9 last night. He realized when we had our conversation earlier when he had to bow out on the day that he'd forgot to tell me happy birthday. He said he was doing better, that he could turn his head now and wanted me to tell him about the dinner so he'd feel guilty for not coming over. *G*
We'll try for a Christmas get together although since Christmas is on Sun and it's the one day we're closed and my regular day off is Sat (which I need to put in for to be sure I still get it) we'll probably do it on Sat so I don't have to get up at o'dark thirty the next day for work.
I'll do my Thanksgiving post later when I've had some breakfast. At least I don't have to worry about fixing lunch to take, the store is feeding us all day and night. It's not the big turkey and ham spread (we only get that at Christmas) but something lighter will be welcome.
OMG I'm not looking forward to tonight!
