As lovely as yesterday was, I think I screwed myself over by not having any outlet for my energy, and thus was unable to go to sleep. Ever.

I watched BSG until 11, and then tried to sleep. And instead began a night of tossing, turning, and occasionally giving in to the call of the 'net. Blah. I am fucked up today. Keep drifting off at my desk.

Work has been merciful. Lots of tying up of loose ends, but nothing that requires the full force of my attention. In other nice news, I got bumped up to second author on the case study, which made me happy.

At first I thought Jeff wasn't going to be here. Then he was, and lo there was much joy. We caught up from our frantic weekends and had a quick lunch at Blue Moon before Jeff had to continue to fight the mountain of backlog that has accrued since his long-weekend away.

Also, I need to catch on to the fact that the weather has changed, and wear more clothing. I'm nigh-hypothermic today. Thin tops are not going to cut it. I want a freaking sweater!

I've got French and I might squeeze some moderate exercise in before passing out early tonight. I want to stop the cycle of insanity and not have this entire week deteriorate into a sleep-deprived haze. I sadly backed out of dinner with Jeff & his genuinely wonderful friends. I'm so tired that I don't think a late dinner out would be good for me, and luckily he understands.

Thank merciful Zeus, I've only got 45 minutes left to the work day!

You too? Must have been something in the air. Couldn't sleep worth a damn, last night, & I've been so tired as to be nearly useless, all day ...

Yes, me too! I was so confused. And even when I'm sleep deprived, I usually have a lot more energy than I've had today.

I need bed. Nowwwwwww.

Oddly, I sleep fairly well last night. Maybe because I needed it so much. Also, I wasn't on the computer much, I was reading or something.

I definitely need a lot tonight. I hope I can buy myself a clue and actually get tucked in early.

I hope you clue-buying money was better spent than mine. I got to bed late, stupid me.

I cashed in big with 10 hours of much-needed sleep last night.

I have to admit, I almost didn't.. I sort of teetered on the edge of, "Oh, but I could watch the rest of BSG:S1, and that's just 4 more episodes!" But then I slapped myself twice and hauled myself off to bed.

I could have used the slapping. Sadly, everything for me was "just five more minutes". I wanted food after coming home from Go, made soup and sat down to play a little City of Heroes while eating. Big mistake. Then a friend came on and I really got distracted from eating, and I couldn't stop playing until I finished eating... sigh.

I have more nights like that than I care to admit to. :)
