It's around that time that I wouldn't normally be attempting to go to bed, but I'm just not sleepy, regardless of bedtime meds.

I feel like getting lots of stuff done, but I'm so paranoid to be flitting around my house at night...ya never know.

I have to be confined to my bedroom I guess b/c I'm just too scared to leave my bedroom at night.

What SHOULD I do?

Do leg lifts on your bed,
jump on your bed
Press your face up against the window nd think of how funny you look ouside
Tie all your sheets tog and see how long you could get out your window (lol)
Do your nails
Reorganize you closet
Pick out clothes you dont wear and make a pile for the 2nd hand store.
?????????????????????

Just go to bed and do house stuff in the day light.

HannaHana 01/13/2008

hmm...all sounds good. I'll probably just sit here on DS and bitch about it and not do anything else. Sorry guys.

deleted_user 01/13/2008

We'll Hanna that's probably what I'd do.

You can do what I do, I make sure each of my windows that have curtains and blinders, don't have a crack in them so no one could watch me and plot for me to join the army or something else stupid.

Do research on items that you have always planned on researching but never did.

Read the dictionary and forget everything.

Read the bible and fall asleep for sure.

Read the dictionary! HAHAAAHAHA!
That's GOTTA work!!

HannaHana 01/13/2008

I'd read the dictionary...but it's downstairs!!! and there's no blinds there!! Just a wonderful french door that leads to my horribly dark back yard.

You are doing something. You are writing to your buddies on DS. That counts as something. On the other side of that computer screen we are all real people.

I actually went downstairs and took down the xmas tree (finally)...it was scary, but I did it! Now it's about that time for me to go to bed...not that it wasn't a couple hours ago.

deleted_user 01/14/2008

It is 11:52

I want to go go to bed so I can get up and call chestnut an see what time I have to be in for therapy.

Then I have to go to school and buy my books.

then I have to go home and think whilst staring at a wall.

I Want to go to bed but my body says, screw that you need to be up!!!

OMG are you my subconsciousness? I feel the same way very often. Last night I knew I had to get up at 5:30am for work the next morning but I still stayed up until 1:30am because i felt the need to, like there was soemthing i should be doing. I never end up doing anythign productive during thios time

I didn't go to sleep until 8:30am yesterday, that was a first. I hate this insomnia.
