Sleep Saturation

I am still waiting on the housing process to finish processing. It is looking good, but it ain't over 'till the ink dries and now is the time to give the deal every opportunity to fail. Once the ink dries, there is no going back. All the unknowns are yours to discover and take responsibility for.


Sleep is my personal favorite way to wait. Wake me when it is time to actually do something. Alas, a body only needs so much sleep and the symptoms of sleep saturation are not pleasant to my senses. My muscles ache from lack of use. My joints get stiff and begin protesting at the slightest movement. My bowels clog from the lack of movement to help keep them stirred. My dreams get ever closer to my consciousness and begin getting rowdy. My dog gets grumbly from boredom.


Anybody else suffer symptoms of sleep saturation?

Is it progress that these days I suffer the symptoms of sleep saturation far more often than I suffer insomnia? Sometimes that feels like a cosmic cruelty. . . Do I have to be the butt of EVERY joke?
