Last night was one of those nights I was wishing so badly that I could just turn my brain off with the flick of a switch. Oh, but no, last night I went to bed at about 9:30 pm, Kelly gets up super early so I am trying to be on a similiar schedule, as call times are typically early too. Anyway, I tossed and turned and felt like I had been awake for hours, I looked at my phone, and yep I had been. It was 12:35 am! Kelly had completed an entire REM cycle and there I lay. I was wide awake and then my stomach started gurguling, really loud. So, then I was even more awake and distracted by my sudden hunger pains. I lay there a bit more and a few minutes later find myself once again back to my tip toe state as I made my way down the stairs to the kitchen. I am never awake enough to actually get out of bed, I hate getting out of bed to go to the bathroom, let alone to raid the fridge. So, at 1:00 am I had 3 slices of pepperoni and a cherry yogurt. Obviously the combo was a 1:00 am decision. I then surfed the web and I believe I was finally able to fall asleep sometime after 2:00. I was then wide awake at 4:45am when Kelly's alarm went off and I even had a real conversation with him, one that I remember (sometimes he will say, "I told you this morning," and I have absolutely no recollection of talking to him at all). This time I stayed awake until 10 am, feeling cold/hot/thirsty/tired/annoyed/cold/hot, you get the point. Needless to say I finally started my day at 1:00 pm. Tonight I am hoping to sleep like a highschooler, long and hard, able to sleep through anything at anytime.
