Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Hey ND - check this out: Diablo Sandwich Maker
Excellent!
You guys are registering at Sky Mall, right?
For our lawn zombie?
Last I checked we are actually planning to do the wedding registry through Amazon.
Between the workout, reading a chapter of a new audio textbook, some bits of various magazines, guitar hero, a dozen games of backgammon, and a couple movies, you'd think my brain would be tired. Nsm. Legs? Oh ya. Brain. Nope. Sometimes my body confuses me.
ION- great to see your pixels ND!! How's the cruises going?
Sigh. I have had the worst onset of jetlag of my life this weekend. I stayed up almost all night Thursday packing, so I was exhausted when I got on the plane at the crack of dawn Saturday. I dozed a little on the plane, but not so much to feel remotely rested. Once I got into Olrando, I had dinner and read for a bit. I figured this would set me up great for a good night's sleep. NSM. I fell right asleep at 9 but then ping ponged back and forth between periods of sleep and periods of wide awakeness all night. I forced myself to stay away all day today, again hoping I'd crash and sleep the night. I was out cold by 9...and opened my eyes around 11:30, completely wide awake.I took an Ambien at midnight hoping it would crash me back out, but it had no effect whatsoever. It's now almost 5AM, and I want to cry with frustration. I don't have to get up for anything in particular tomorrow, but I can't keep this insane no-sleep pattern up. And when Ambien doesn't help, well, that's making my panic even worse.
Sorry to post and whine and run, but this internet costs a fortune. Adjust-sleep-ma would be appreciated.
Why am I awake? Why?
to remind me to go to bed. It was very kind of you. Thank you. Now you should turn in too.
Hugs to other insomniacs.
I forgot to mention the other reason why I've been wide awake. The ship is rocking a bit, which is fine, but I have an inside cabin which apparently backs up against some kind of theatre or storage room. All night long, I've been listening to something bang against my wall, right next to my head. It's like someone is tapping the wall with a hammer and then giving it a good thwack now and again. I suspect a cable or something else heavy. I finally called the front desk at 5, and they sent security up to check it out. Luckily the noise was evident enough that they don't doubt me. They're trying to track down the culprit, whatever it may be, but I'm not too hopeful about getting back to sleep at all at this point. Sigh.
