YAY SMONSTER!
Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
brenda is me! I used to have terrible insomnia but thank DOG melatonin does the trick for me. I do not know how I'd cope.
Yay for excellent surgery outcome, Perkins!
Erin, yay for a sensible and helpful doctor! If you feel like it, you should tell that other doctor exactly why you won't be seeing her anymore.
smonster, yay for job offer! Do you need me to start calling you in the mornings again? I apologize for falling out of the habit.
Because of all of the drama about Christine O'Donnell and her "witchcraft" past, ParentDish from AOL interviewed a "witch mom" (their term, not mine) and when asked about O'Donnell, she said"
I don't want to claim Christine O'Donnell. It's kind of like when Sen. Larry Craig was caught in that airport bathroom. No gay person wanted to claim him, either.
I was amused. And on that note, am headed home.
Heh. I totally don't get insomnia because I have the opposite problem--I can't get ENOUGH sleep. I am ALWAYS ready for a nap (though naps don't work because I end up thinking "or I could just sleep til morning!"), and pretty much always able to sleep. (Especially "sleep longer", I'm not as bad about staying up, though occasionally....).
Only rarely am I unable to sleep (like, night before a big event or something, when I"m all jazzed up). But I can't imagine. Ick.
Yay smonster! Good decision~ma for you.
OMG JOB OFFER OMG HEAD GONNA 'SPLODE. (sorry for asscaps)
No, totally worth the asscaps! YAY, smonster!
I was once, basically, awake for a month.
Actually, I got 2-4 hours of shitty sleep a night which was sufficient to sustain life but not sanity. Cass was nothing short of a saint until I got to the doctor. I've never been that bad since and I won't be without an Ambien stash ever ever ever ever ever ever ever again.
Once, on a road trip, I took a friend's Ativan which knocked me out nicely. It makes sense that anxiety is a big component of my insomnia. Once I have health insurance again I intend to discuss this with my doc.

Woman! Have you done a sleep study? It's possible the sleep you're getting at night is shite.
Wonderful news, Perkins. Wonderful. Oh what a relief that must be.
I am as one with meara on the sleeping. I can always sleep. I probably need to sleep less. When I'm anxious about something, my usual way of dealing is to hide from it by falling asleep. I once fell asleep while my boyfriend was yelling at me. Pack for the nerve-racking trip tomorrow or fall asleep? ZZZZZ
