in·som·ni·a
[in-som-nee-uh]–noun
inability to obtain sufficient sleep, especially when chronic; difficulty in falling or staying asleep; sleeplessness.
I have never seen myself as an insomniac, however over the last 8 years I definitely have suffered from the above mentioned symptoms. It comes and goes. Sometimes I sleep like a baby for months and BAM! Next thing you know I hardly get any sleep for weeks.
So here I am again... it's 4 in the morning and I have not been able to fall asleep at all. It's not all bad you know, I get a lot done actually. I fly through books that would usually take me weeks to finish, I get a lot of writing done and I even get to do some extra housekeeping and DIY (There's something magical about midnight cupboard fixing).
But alas, as much fun as it is organising my iTunes library in the middle of the night, I do miss my sleep. Now I am a moody and difficult man at the best of times... take away my sleep and the moods go all over the place. Not as bad as it used to be, but I still have my arsehole moments.
As I type this I can already hear the birds chirping outside... not a good sign...
Pretty though and quite peaceful actually...
And the really ironic thing is, my left leg just fell asleep... stupid leg... not a team player it would seem...
I guess there is no real point to this post, more of a time killer as i wait for the sun to rise...
Anyways, have a good Tuesday... I know I will :)
