Hints it is going to be a rough night for sleeping.

-You are too aggressive while flossing your teeth, cutting your gums and making them hurt so bad you need Vicodin. (note to self, a huge dinner of bbq chased down with gummy candy is not good if you have a place for food to get caught)

-You wake up in the middle of the night yelling, "Kill me! Kill me!". This was just one portion of the three nightmares I had last night, each waking me up for about an hour. Or so it felt like. I purposely don't have an alarm clock where I can see it. Knowing when I wake up and how long I've been awake would be interminable.

-You've recently cut your hair short but don't bother to put sunscreen on the top of your head and then spend 4 hours outside. In direct sun. Thus burning the top of your head. Causing pain and the desire to scratch like crazy. Super distracting.

-Rain and grey weather. In college in the mountains of Oregon, I had to go to a tanning booth during the winter just to feel even halfway normal. No Prozac for me, just UV please. Just like 4 minutes, once a week. I think I still have the little eye glass thingys.... If anyone truly has SAD it is me. The sound of rain disturbs enough to make sleeping fitful. Couple it with a grey day and then a dour mood is just the rotten cherry on top.

So, time for some action. Just gonna make sure I do stuff today. And of course eat two huge homemade chili cheese dogs for lunch.
