Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

This is pretty much the pain that will happen with two bad bouts of insomnia.

I'm not dealing with anything like your chronic pain but finally sleeping last night after two nights of awfulness has made a huge difference in how I feel today. Insomnia, especially cumulative, is horrid. Sleep is amazing.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I hear you, Cass. Getting out from under that would be marvellous. I just don't know HOW.

Christ--they just announced one of the codes I remember from working here--code pink is a kidnapped baby. I don't want to imagine the freaking out that's happening right now.

Wait--and now they say it's a drill? Five minutes after, say, eight calls without saying it's a drill?

That's either mean or shifty.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I vote shifty. What a scary thought!

But do people really use business cards any more?

Certainly. I'm looking forward to having business cards again that I don't have to design & print out on the laser printer...

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Sorry so many folks are having insomnia issues. The last few days I've had a little difficulty calming down for sleep. I've been following my usual routine, so I don't know why my heart's been racing a bit. (It doesn't take super long to fall asleep, just a little longer than usual.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I track my sleep, because there's an app for that, and tag each night with factors that may affect my sleep - coffee, tea, stress, exercise, whatever. The only one of my tag that the app says helps me sleep is drinking tea, and when I say I drank tea I mean a cup of black tea in the afternoon, so, I don't know what to make of that. Even melatonin doesn't show a positive effect, but I think that's because I only take it when I expect to have trouble falling asleep and have to get up whether I sleep or not.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I was keeping a dream journal for a while but I stopped because, apparently, I have a LOT of anxiety dreams -- and writing them down re-anxiouses me.

Which leads me to think that even when I DO sleep... I don't get a whole lot of rest. Isn't that just dandy.

Y'all, my work inbox is so tidy and organized right now. I'll be cleaning my keyboard pretty soon if nothing comes up for me to do.

It's a shame you can't tackle mine long distance.
