I just want to sleep

I’m up. Three hours early but I’m up. I’m going to pay for this tonight, I just know it, but I can’t seem to get back to sleep. I don’t know why I have such a hard time sleeping on Saturday mornings. I’m usually up all night Friday so I should be tired. I even took a sleeping pill before I finally went to bed at 0800. And on top of that it had been twenty-six hours since I’d last taken my ADHD medication so that shouldn’t have been a factor in keeping me awake either.

Critter has the night off for once; she’s working earlier than she normally does on the weekends. And her mom has the kids this weekend, so tonight would be the perfect night to spend some time together, maybe have an actual date or something. Of course I’m working. Grrrr.

And now I’m tired again, but I know when I crawl back into bed I’m just going to end up lying there.

I hate Saturdays. I hate working nights. I just want to be back on days so I can have a real life. Just nine months to go now.
