once i give up on getting to bed at the time i was shooting for...ohhh man, it's a sad state.
for the first few minutes, i might entertain the idea that i'll just be a *few* short minutes late.
HAH. well, my already sleep deprived brain ensures that i slowly trick myself into just checking out another song, or maybe just writing a blog (...) or checking that one thing i've been meaning to check for weeks..heck, anything except complete the task which i am staying up to accomplish. it's a vicious cycle, you see- one that i would never wish upon you, dear friends.
so, i'm telling you as one who knows and has personally experienced the dastardly affects of the sleep deprivation cycle- do not miss your bed time!!! well, i guess that's only so dastardly if you have the same sort of pattern as me...but don't miss your bed time anyway. life's much more fun when you get enough sleep (that i do not know from personal experience, but i've sure heard some wonderful stories.)
yes, i know how many of you are laughing at me. go ahead, mock away. i will stand firm in my pride of this new discovery. THIS could be the turn around!
good night one and all.
when I read this, I had to double check that I was indeed on YOUR blog & not molly's. it was sounding eerily similar to her own bedtime routine! what is it about getting older & bedtime getting harder? i never go to bed until i'm tired, which sometimes might be 9pm, sometimes not til 4am! shouldn't we go to bed BEFORE we're tired? & yet, it seems so impossible. sweet dreams to you anna.
ReplyDeletethat's why i have the alarm go off to tell me it's time to start getting ready for bed.
