Yeah, Great Blog…

Or, to be more specific, SLEEP.

I’ve been having these weird insomniac issues lately. Like, last night I wasn’t able to fall asleep until after 5AM. I went into my room at about midnight, hopeful for an early night… and ended up reading almost the entire new DOUBLE issue of Entertainment Weekly, watched an episode of Gossip Girl on my computer, surfed the internet for about an hour, and then proceeded to play about two hours’ worth of Bejeweled 2. I finally turned the lights off after 5, it was already starting to get light outside, and just laid there for God only knows how long until I fell asleep.

I just graduated college and am waiting to move back home. In the meantime, I don’t have anything to do and am stuck in this sort of limbo because I can’t get a JOB to occupy my time, and I’m supposed to be saving my money, so I can’t really DO anything. So, I end up staying in my little apartment, going slightly mad I should say, and just waiting for a time when I actually have something to do.  Because of this, my sleep schedule has gotten all fucked up.  I can’t fall asleep until, as I’ve pointed out, really late at night, and I end up sleeping in way too late.  Today I woke up around 12:45PM.  And tonight, I’m sure it’ll happen ALL OVER AGAIN.

There have also been weird dreams going through my head at night. Has anyone else ever had test dreams? Like, you’re late for a test, or you missed a test, or you’re taking an important test that you don’t know any of the answers to? I’ve been having one of those dreams ALMOST EVERY NIGHT. I’m not in school anymore, I have to remind myself when I wake up in a cold sweat, it was just a dream.

These dreams usually happen whenever I haven’t written in a while. I’m a writer, and I think this is my brain telling me to get going again!

Maybe I should do that now. Probably not, but it’s nice to dream.  Dream of writing, I mean, not of missing tests.  I fucking hate that.
