My Life Thus Far
Being Sleepy Sucks
Although today wasn't a bad day, it wasn't all that great
either. It's still not over yet, it's only 4:30pm, but I
don't plan on staying up late tonight. To write or do
anything else. I might even go to bed as soon as I get the
girls to bed. I didn't sleep well last night.
After Gen left, I looked around the quiet, empty house and
felt that sinking feeling that comes when you're having
fun and it's all of a sudden over. I went from happy and
energized to lonely and tired. I ended up falling asleep
on the couch in front of the tv. I didn't wake up until
4:45am and was surprised to see pretty much every light on
in the house and Annie watching CNN (or whatever news I'd
had it on before I fell asleep). She took a long nap
yesterday evening, so she wasn't very tired. I sent her
back to her bedroom to play and I went to bed, only to be
awakened 30 minutes later to Kallista crying. Annie woke
her up. So, I changed her diaper, gave her a bottle and
put her back to sleep. By the time I got back to bed, it
was 6:30am. Snookums came home at 7:30am and woke me up
and I've been up ever since. Being sleepy sucks.
Lack of sleep and crankiness has left me feeling a little
on edge today and every task I touch seems to go wrong.
I'm dropping everything, tripping over my own feet, just
having a bad time of things. Even my walk sucked. I didn't
feel like jogging, but I got in 3.5 miles/480 calories
burned, so it wasn't a total loss. I dropped my cell phone
on the ground and chipped the silver finish, so that
irritated me, because I like everything to be just-so and
now it's not perfect. I'll have to get a new one, or at
least a cover so I don't have to see the imperfection.
I'm going to do my best to make it through the rest of the
day without anymore undue drama and then retire to my bed.
I plan on cuddling a little with my Snookie and getting 10
hours of sleep. I don't know if that will happen, but I'll
try. Maybe tomorrow will be a better day. Ciao.
