My office is only five miles away, so I can pop in, do my morning stuff, and pop back out again, getting home an hour after I leave. I did that last Monday when i was just really tired, so I'm reluctant to do it again ten days later now that I'm really sick, but oh well.
Great--now I've got heartburn; acid in the back of my throat is adding to my queasiness. I'm going to wait until that goes away before going back to sleep, this time in bed.
Have a good night, Spidra!!
I'm up again due to an early-morning bathroom emergency. Since I don't want to be too far away from a bathroom right now, I just emailed my boss and told her I was too sick to come in.
Insomnia in SoCal too. I try not to be up enough to actually get online, but unlike last time I woke up (at 1), I'm really bored.
I don't have to be in to my office until later than usual today, so I could sleep an extra hour, but I woke up at the usual time anyway.
a guide to tipping is coming out in November.
I have been going to bed earlier than normal, sleeping/snoozing to regular time, but I am not getting rested. I am having weirdo dreams and I think multiple dreams a night. I want a day to nap.
Despite the lack of sleep, I am up, dressed, and in the office. Can I go home now?
Make you a deal, msbelle: I am starting to get REALLY BORED cleaning my own house and stuff, while sending out resumes.
Fly me to TX for a few days and I'll be your au pair and aide, you can nap, and because of Murphy's Law, people will call be wanting interviews ASAP.
Deal?!
Can I go home now?
Yes.
I started to fall asleep on the couch at 9:30 last night and got myself up and to bed. Fell asleep about 45 minutes later (which is good for me). Woke up at 3:30, but fell back asleep within 15 minutes.
Had a sad moment when I realized today was Thursday after thinking it was Friday.
So, I am getting Girl Scouts off the ground at school and, oy. One of the potential leaders wants to back out because of the registration fee ($12). I told her we had troop funds for that and her time and effort was worth so much more. I may have to pay her registration myself, but god damn it. She is youngish, has 3 kids and I think doesn't work and lives with her mother. The just-released American Community Survey reports that 39% of the children in my city live below the poverty level. I hate that I know people for whom $12 a year to be a Girl Scout is a hardship.
