So, I've never been good at going to sleep. I'm also no good at getting up. Seems as if I'm not built for a schedule. Or for fitting with other people's lives. Or for going shopping at a reasonable hour.
Last night I didn't sleep. It was five in the morning. I did yoga hoping it would relax me into sleepiness. Nope. It got to be seven in the morning. I decided to go out and run. Then I came back in and slept for an hour. Then I did something else that I can't remember and tried to sleep. And then I got up. Because it didn't matter.
I'm still up.
I'm making an effort to sleep. I real effort, not just a half-way effort. I was with my friend Ali who had books about insomnia. I think I have an over active something or other that makes me easily startled and makes it harder for me to filter out noises. I read that and smiled. Oh! Me in a book!
But I didn't figure out how to fix it.
Maybe tomorrow. Or tonight. But I hope tomorrow.
