Mice and Men and So Forth...

Funny how a bout of insomnia can screw up the best-laid plans. Gah.

So here's how last night went:

Me: "Oh, look. 11:30. I should go to bed." *proceeds to do so*

Brain: "HEY! WAKE UP! I'M NOT DONE YET!"

Body: "Shut up. Sleeping." *keeps eyes closed*

Brain: "NO YOU'RE NOT! I'M AWAKE, WHICH MEANS YOU'RE AWAKE! YAY!"

Body: "Shut up. Sleeping." *keeps eyes closed*

Brain: "YOU CAN'T FOOL ME! I KNOW YOU'RE AWAKE! C'MON!"

Body: "Shut up. Sleeping." *keeps eyes closed*

Brain: "HEY! DON'T IGNORE ME! I HAVE IMPORTANT THINGS TO SAY! WAKE UP!"

Body: "Can't hear you. Shut up. Trying to sleep."

Brain: "WAKEUPWAKEUPWAKEUPWAKEUPWAKEUP!"

Body: "Can't hear you! La la la la!" *sticks fingers in ears*


Etc. It was really weird. I wasn't sleeping, but I couldn't get my body to do anything except lie there with my eyes closed. I've never had that happen before. I think I got to sleep a little past 3am, but I'm not sure. Now I have a blinding headache and no energy to do anything except drag my sorry self around the apartment a bit.

*sigh*

Meh.

GIP!

I now have a zombie icon. I figured it was about time. Also, it reflects my current state of being. I was planning on making an early night of it, but the Paternal Unit had other ideas, and so I've only been home for about 15 minutes. Going to go pass out now. No writing today. Writing tomorrow. Yes.

G'night.
