It's nearly 3am and here I am, quite awake. I'm actually very tired, I just can't sleep for some reason. Unfortunately, that results in me getting more frustrated about not being able to sleep which likely prevents me all them more from nodding off. Another side effect of laying there in the dark not falling asleep is that my mind starts looping through any little issue that's arisen lately, cycling over them repeatedly and having a kind of snowball effect. That adds to the frustration and makes things worse. Even more annoying is that before I went to bed, I kept starting to doze off at the keyboard. I ended up ending a conversation with someone rather abruptly which they weren't happy about.
If I'm lucky when this sort of thing happens, I eventually force myself to turn on the light and try to do something. So here I am in the wee hours, futzing about on the laptop and yawning my head off.
I'd been considering taking next Friday off as a sort of mini-celebration, but it turns out a friend and his girlfriend are in town this week. I decided to go into work for a bit tomorrow...er..today, then take the rest of it off instead and do touristy stuff with them Hopefully I'll be able to get enough sleep sometime tonight to at least be coherent around them.
On the plus side, at least Katie hasn't come in and meowed her head off at me as she usually does when I'm in bed and using the laptop. Scratch that. Even as I was typing about her being quiet, she came in and started meowing. Cats. Sheesh!
Gads, I'm tired. I'll probably look at this entry tomorrow and not even remember typing it, then boggle at the incoherence and write an apology for subjecting anyone who read it to the babbling of my half-shut-down brain.
