Down With the Sickness

[tcepsa]

Okay, maybe "up with the sickness" would have been a better title for this post; insomnia struck somewhere shortly before five this morning, and I spent the next hour and a half tossing and turning and not quite being able to fall asleep, but not really waking up enough to have thoughts that made sense.

It's the second time in the past three or four nights that this sort of thing has happened. I don't think I've been up like that for a long time. Maybe the last time I was sick, though even that only happened for like one night. There are too many factors that it could be, I guess. I do have a cold again, which might be it. It could be a side effect of the stress from dealing with the car situation and the other things going on in my life. It could be that I am practicing chi kung too close to bedtime. It could be that my apartment is too warm now that late spring seems to be manifesting itself properly.

Over the next few days I'll try to tweak those different things and see whether I'm able to sleep more soundly.

Hmm, you could move next to an alleyway near a bar and then when you can't sleep you can blame it on the stupid drunk people, cause that's not what I do or anything.

In a few weeks most of the crazies will go home and it will be quiet again, oh happy days. Of course I have to survive this weekend and next weekend when everyone finds their freedom and gets drunk in the streets.

Why did I renew my lease again? Oh yeah, I'm too lazy to move.

*laugh* Had that experience already. It was called "Adams-Morgan," though on the whole it tended to be the 4 AM dump truck more often than carousers (I swear, garbage was collected in that alleyway more often than anywhere else in the world...)

Have you considered investing in a nice pair of industrial strength ear plugs? (of course there's the whole not-being-able-to-hear-the-alarm that goes with that, I suppose)
