I slept like crap last night. We discovered that the house trap had clogged and the main sewer line was backing up into the laundry room at about 11 last night (meaning ANY water we tried to run would cause a flood, so no brushing teeth or flushing the toilet) and called an emergency plumber. So that kept us up until 1:30, and then my body was just like NOPE. I think I fell asleep sometime around 3, eventually?
Anyway, I think maybe Adam Gopnik is right. I hope real-world me is getting some rest, because the one in the Matrix feels like ass today.
Oh man, sorry about the bad sleep y'all! I have only myself to blame--I got perfectly fine sleep, I just went to bed later than I should have.
The night I get to bed before 3AM is rare, it's usually closer to 4:00. Up like clockwork at 9AM, sometimes before. I can't go to bed before I'm falling asleep vertically, or I'll stare at the ceiling getting progressively angrier and more awake. And I can't stay asleep in the mornings. Afternoon naps are becoming more frequent, though.
Also slept like crap due to brain monkeys and the wind.
And this. Sistah!
It's a good thing I did my taxes already, because the refund went towards the $700 almost-entirely-new fuel system in my Jeep. It was being stubborn about starting the last couple of days, and with working 20 miles from home, I'm not running the risk of being stranded some evening. So now I have a new fuel pump, which involved dropping the gas tank, a new fuel filter, a bunch of new fuel line, and squeaky clean fuel injectors. And they ran an engine diagnostic and didn't find anything else about to go out. In the past two years I've had a new battery, alternator, 02 sensor, two new starters (one under warrantey, so yay), and a couple of gaskets. Oh, and new tires. But it's a sturdy beast, and I hope it appreciates that I give it quick care.
Timelies all!
I'm sorry so many of you aren't sleeping well. I think I'm sleeping alright(at least, I don't remember waking up during the night) but I'm still tired. Doesn't help that Gary's not been sleeping well due to a cold.
I'm making this for dinner tonight and I'm really excited about it.
I haven't been sleeping too well lately, but I'm chalking it up a crappy new bed. Been meaning to get some kind of mattress topper for it, because the mattress they provided for us is pretty horrible.
I hope you all sleep better tonight!!
Budget Bytes is so good. I just finished a bowl of her curry lentils!

Don't do chicken, but maple/dijon always a winner. So yum!
So sorry for all the sleeplessness. May tonight be most restful and renewing. I figure on hitting the highway around 6 AM to traverse the everglades and see family and do work stuff. I rather enjoy the drive and all the early morning nature activity so all good.

I'm VERY new to cooking, as I mentioned previously, and if a friend on IRC hadn't linked me to her site, I think it would be going way, way worse.
Yay, Everglades!
