Sleepless in Scotland
diaryland entry 1:20 a.m. - 2005-11-23
Hmm.
I forgot that I updated my time zone on Diaryland. So it accurately shows that I'm starting this entry at 1:20 a.m.
This is the second night in a row that I can't sleep. I gave up pretending to sleep and changing positions every 5 minutes and just came downstairs. No sense keeping Husband awake.
I don't know why I'm not sleeping. I'm tired and yawning all day and yet as soon as I lay in bed, I'm anything but tired. I don't have anything specific on my mind. My brain just won't shut up. A thousand ideas of things I could/should be doing flood my head and I can't sleep.
In the past 2 sleepless nights I've accomplished a lot. I've figured out how to make a cake that looks like a guinea pig. I've figured out how to program a macro related to a cookbook I'm writing. I've pondered all of my career options. I've written a 3-minute stand-up routine about my husband's eyebrows. I just haven't figured out what I need to do to get some sleep.
I thought that maybe writing a diary entry would clear some of this crap out of my head and I'd be able to sleep. I'm not sure it worked. In any case, I should go back to bed because it's really cold in here. The heat isn't turned on at night, so the only warm place is under the covers.
Dang. I have to pee. The toilet is going to be freezing.
