I got up at 2pm today. Oh, did I mention I have insomnia? Well, I do. For some reason, no matter how hard or try (or how many sleep aids I take), my body won't let me fall sleep before 5am. Maybe it has something to do with my partners' snoring patterns. Oh well. Anyway, I got up at 2pm today (I'm an academic, my job lets me do that) and my partner came home from work and made Skyline chili. The moment I finished my deliciousness I jumped up and said "let's go swimming!" and I swear to freakin' Buddha that the second I did, thunder crashed all around us. Stupid storm. Stupid afternoon thunderstorms every day. So, I'll be patient with it. I'm going to put on my swim suit anyway, head over to the pool, and kindly wait for the world to stop hating me [today].Friday, August 12, 2011
the universe hates me.

I'm a shift worker - doing both days and nights - and I swear my body just loves nights. I can be awake all night and asleep all day very very happily. After a run of night shifts I find it very hard to get of the nights mentality and sleep at night. I think its just the way I'm made. It was my birthday this week and my 80 yr old parents sent me a card saying on the front " You're good in bed - You can sleep all day!" and its true.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we are both just good in bed!

It's realllly nice to meet someone else like me! What doesn't help at all is that my partner has narcolepsy, so she sleeps alll the time when she isn't working.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, btw - mine's on Sunday! :)
Cheers!
