When I'm Tired I Get Anxious


This was a Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. I don't want to talk about things I did, things I said, how I feel, but suffice to say: wow. I think I can count on one finger the number of people I've talked to today that I haven't gotten pissed off at (and mostly for incredibly irrational reasons).

I can chalk it up to being exhausted and a couple things that happened this morning. And, unfortunately, I don't think any of that is going to change any time soon. Case in point: I have to be up in four and a half hours. Am I sleeping? No, I'm taking a break from trying to pull together my College Writing portfolio. Which, I must say, I am incredibly proud of. I hope that I get a most excellent grade, but I won't know until next semester.

Stacy mentioned the other day that I creep her out a lot. She knows that I don't sleep, but she also knows that I don't take naps. She couldn't figure out how I function like that, and I didn't have the heart to tell her that I don't.

I can tell the days when I went to bed early or got up late. I'm nicer to people, things piss me off a lot less, I have more patience with idiots. When I don't have enough sleep, I'm crabby and bitchy. I get mad easily, but I don't have the brains to tell the person/pull back until I'm calmer. My little patience with idiots deteriorates to no patience (case in point: my relationship with Dan back when I was getting enough sleep vs. my relationship with him now).

Tomorrow, I need to take a nap. I have to come home from discrete and sleepsleepsleep until it's time for Fundamentals. Elsewise, I don't want to imagine what I'll be like. I'm calmed down now (long showers and leaving a jar of lavender stuff open do wonders), but who knows how long that will last?

I can't begin to tell you how many times crazy shit like that has worked for me.
