Can’t Sleep? Us, Either.

Oh, hello! Is it 2am? Have you been trying to fall back asleep for a few hours? Are you also cursing your snoring partner beside you? Making mental lists because you’ve counted all of the sheep? Commercial from 1998 stuck in your head? 

Join us, and share what you’re reading, watching, and/ or thinking about while you toss and turn. If we’re gonna be awake anyway, let’s have some fun, eh?

Just over here prepping our insomnia thread  🙃

Love it! I'll probably be back at midnight 🤣

Whelp it’s been two hours of tossing and turning. Perhaps staring at a glowing screen will help. 🙃 Things on my mind:

- Can’t get one phrase from a song out of my head. Been stuck there for days. 

- Mentally packing for tomorrow’s flight
- Why isn’t it fall weather yet? I swear this heat is contributing to my breathless feeling 
- Mental note to download movie for the flight
- Visualizing the closet-to-home-office project I’m working on
- Plotting how to make the most of my two nights in a hotel. Face masks are a must. 

…anyone else up?

@heytallmama It's 4am and I just woke up needing to pee. My alarm is set for 5 and I don't think the insomnia will let me fall asleep by then. Things on my mind:

-All of my various problems at work and how they're not even supposed to be my problems because MY ship is underway with that other guy on it and these are all HIS problems on HIS ship created by the fact that he apparently has not done any aspect of his job for the past year. And it shouldn't be my job to fix it and it's not fair.
-First OB appt today. What if there's no heartbeat and all of this was for nothing? 
-I need to finish buying DD's school supplies.
-I still want ramen after someone mentioned it on a thread a few days ago.
-i agree. Where is fall?

@noxacanthus That was me on the ramen- I hope you can get some! 

Oof that is bullshit about having to cover for the guy who hasn’t done his work. It sucks that he gets to reap the benefits of your hard work and here you are doing double duty. 😡 are you at least able to make his superior aware of what he’s dropped the ball on?

I’ve had the same fear about heartbeat. Putting it out to the universe for you that all will be ok! ❤️
