asleep, awake, tired, wired--my body sends mixed messages
For some reason, I woke up around 8am this morning.
For those of you who are not familiar with the utter craziness that is my sleep schedule, or my frustration with a body that asks for anywhere between 10 and 16 hours of sleep a night (really cuts down on productivity, to say the last), you will probably guess that I went to bed not at 10pm last night, but at 4am this morning!
Why is it that when I go to bed anytime before 3am, my body asks for 12 hours of sleep, yet when I go to bed at insane times like 4 and 6am, my body says, Okay, it's been 3-4 hours, let's get up now--I feel great!
I really need to schedule that sleep study follow up. I suspect that would be helpful. >_>
The reason I went to bed so late is that after the weekly gathering at jameson9101322's house, rosalyn_angel came to my house and did some tagging (writing) for the RPGs she's in while I started hand-writing a short story that's been poking at my brain for a fair bit of time.
As a result, my list of stuff to do includes typing up what I wrote last night, along with the usual house cleaning and homework. ^_^ For the time being, at least, writing whatever I want--and by hand--seems to be working fine for story. So...outlining L&W by hand is the logical next step, if we're going by the "not a quitter" route. Sad that the story and world give me such joy, but anxiety is crippling the retelling itself.
Does anyone else remember that "Anxiety" song by Papa Roach (and apparently the Black Eyed Peas?!)? That was a fun song. *is a dork*
