Since I read a couple of articles in the past month about broken sleep, I finally, after months of suffering through a weird waking/sleeping cycle decided that I would just... go with it ( Read more... )

How's work going? I spend 20 minutes on the bus reading/listening to music, 15 minutes on the train doing same, 7.5 hours at work reading/proofing/editing/listening to music, and then 15 minutes on the train listening to music/talking to a co-worker (who have for the most part been members of the tribe ( Read more... )

This week's schedule got put up, and I am thankful that I have Thanksgiving day off. And today too! Although my plan to take sleeping pills and sleep really damned late was thwarted by the fucking honking car alarm that began going off at 6.42 and which continued honking at different decibels and pitches for the next half hour. I hate that bastard ( Read more... )

Argh!

Slept hard last night, after falling into bed at 1am, then the Phooka decided I needed to be awake at 6.13 this morning. Can't really blame him, poor thing, the door had shut more tightly than usual and he couldn't get out of my room. But still...

So I got up and started making today's bread. Lots of things to do today, first with pescana, then ( Read more... )

Can I call a do over for today?

Goddamn.

Not having a good one. Should go back to bed, as if that'd do any good what with the not sleeping thing, which is just endlessly pissing me off.

Who else is with me? Let's call a do over.

Fuck this.

So yeah, I can go a long, long time on very little sleep, but I finally began to hit the wall this weekend. Seriously, the sleeping pills aren't even keeping me down. Sleeping pills mixed with wine! Heavy French food!

I guess I really am supersonic.

( What Happened Was... )

Are ya kiddin' me?

Went to bed at 10pm.

Woke up at 2.49 am.

Fffaaaaaahk. This is absurd.

And THEN my stupid CAT, Nepher, reached up and flipped the switch on the water heater right while I was in the midst of full on conditioner and soapage. Rotten, rotten cat.

Only two more classes to go. One of them is a presentation.

Torrents of it. It just woke me up from my all too brief lunch time nap between classes.

Don't you like... wandering down to the kitchen at 3.17am after startling out of a fitful feverish doze, because you realize that you're bloody well starving, and standing there at the kitchen sink lit only by the streetlamps outside eating torn off bits of baguette with small chunks of cheddar* you just didn't have the patience to slice, and ( Read more... )
