Unisomnia

Few things:

I’ve been having trouble sleeping again.  I always have trouble sleeping when I am at home.  When I’m at school, sleeping is no problem.  I suspect it is because I am both mentally and physically exhausted by the end of the day.  I’m always “on,” always trying to be creative and always trying to plan how I’m going to juggle school and roommates and food and etc.  I’m always on the run, always grocery shopping or walking or driving from class to the dorm and from the dorm to wherever.  I have pretty full days that tire me out.  When I’m at home, I have nothing to do and so not only am I not tired at the end of the day, I stay up way late and sleep in way late.  I get my sleep schedule messed up and it’s incredibly hard to get it back on track.

So, I took some sleeping pills to help me out.

A couple of days ago, I popped a Unisom and drifted off to sleep pretty easily but when I woke up I felt like I was physically sick.  I felt like garbage for the rest of the day.  I can’t do that again.  I felt like that pill never wore off.  I felt like I was in some state of Unisomnia, a mixture of hung over zombie and… just a regular zombie, I guess.  Something to do with zombies.

I’m really excited that I can play Netflix movies on my Mac.  For the longest time, they had the instant watch capability but it was only for PC users.  It’s now Mac accessible but unfortunately, my internet connection is too slow to watch an entire movie without it buffering, which takes about five minutes and is really annoying.  I even have high speed!  I guess it’s not high enough, though.  Oh well, the internet connection at school is super fast so at least I can watch movies there.

I tried growing a beard again.  I don’t know why but I really want to grow a beard.  I’m simply incapable.  My facial hair is sparse and patchy.  I can’t grow hair that connects from the beard to the mustache.  I was hoping the longer I went without shaving, the fuller it would get and it would look decent but it just ended up looking scraggly.  Trailer trash ‘stache.  Plus, one night while I was trying to sleep, with my face on the pillow, my wimpy beard was really scratching up my face and making it itch.  I felt incredibly uncomfortable that night and I woke up the next morning and shaved it all off.

I’ve been struggling over whether to buy a new cell phone or not.  Right now I’m with Alltel but Verizon bought them and now I’m just waiting for this merger to take place.  Since no one knows when everything will kick in, I don’t know if I should buy a new phone from Alltel or wait until Verizon takes over so I can get a Verizon phone.  With my luck, I’ll either wait for Verizon to take over and it won’t happen until next December or I’ll go ahead and buy this new, really expensive phone, and then Verizon will take over and I would have missed out on one of their phones ‘cause their selection is so much better than Alltel’s.  So, I don’t know what to do.  I wouldn’t mind waiting on Verizon if I just knew when they were gonna be taking over.  Right now I’m just leaning toward buying a new one from Alltel because I hate the phone I have right now.  It sucks out loud.  Plus, I am so annoyingly impatient.  That’ll be my birthday present to myself.

I have a new video on YouTube and if you’re bored you should check it out.

And yeah, I’m done.
