Insomnia sucks
I can't sleep.
Yes, it's only 11:44 pm. But two hours ago I was nodding off in front of the television so I thought I'd go to bed. Big mistake. I may be the only person I know who goes to bed to wake up.
I spent far longer than twenty minutes tossing and turning and trying to slow my mind down. I can often do it. I couldn't tonight. It just kept going, racing from one thought to another. I finally had to get up.
Twenty minutes? Oh, that's the maximum amount of time you're supposed to lie awake before getting up to do something else for a bit and then try again.
This is the 'something else.'
Wish me luck.
