Insomnia
Why am I having problems falling asleep? Yesterday, I stayed up till 4 watching GLEE. I am now all caught up on that series, including Avatar - the last air bender. The movies I've recently viewed: Vicky Christina Barcelona, Priceless, Sunshine Cleaning, and The Squid and the Whale. I blame blockbuster. The store is closing and all the movies are being sold for ridiculous prices. I bought an entire season of Pushing Daisies for $7. My sister stocked up on the entire season of Curb Your Enthusiasm for $6 a set. How crazy insane is that?
I don't know how much blockbuster is a contributor of my irregular sleeping habits, but I'm reaping the consequences. My skin is horrible; I'm sluggish all the time. This pretty much stinks. Every time I turn the lights off, my head starts to spin. I think about the grad schools, apps, family matters, youtube (just the other night, I was so worked up about a vid idea that I turned on the line to write my ideas down), school, friends, my life.
When I was little, I mastered the art of cleansing my mind and sleeping with a blank slate. Thus, I rarely have dreams. I know the stats of dreams per person per night but i can't remember any, so I just say I don't dream. Which is technically true because all I remember is blackness. As of late, the only way I can sleep is if I have a pillow over my chest. The extra pressure is comforting for some reason.
There are chimes on my door and every time the heat comes on, it disturbs my chimes. I'm a really light sleeper. Maybe I need to do something about that. I'm just rambling now because I can't sleep.
Now that the holiday season has passed, I'm kind of grateful and sad to see it go. There was just so much family time, both bad and good. One thing I know - I love my parents very much.
What a way to start the new year.
Happy 2010. It's going to be a rough ride.
