not so good

[danaeris]

Not feeling well. I felt FINE last night, and I got 8.5 hours of sleep although I did have to get up to use the washroom partway through, but I'm SO TIRED. Not sick, just tired. *grump* I want to be 100% again! OK, sure, I had a really active weekend, but... I want to be able to have active weekends and not have it affect my energy level adversely.

I've been confused. I thought this coming weekend was thanksgiving, but it isn't--its next weekend. Nonetheles, friends from LA are visiting THIS weekend and my BAMM graduation is this coming Sunday. Now I need to talk to people I made plans with and de-confuse what week they are, since I know I've been saying things like, "The Thursday after Thanksgiving."

I have to work an extra hour today, and I have to do laundry -- I'm completely, utterly out of underwear. I've used the ratty hole-y underwear, the too-small underwear, the sexy underwear... its all used and dirty. And I have a date with angelbob. If I didn't have to do laundry AND work until 6 instead of 5, I could take a nap before the date. But I'll have ~ 1.5 hours, and that's just enough time for laundry OR a nap. Not both. Bah humbug. :(

Gods, do I wish I could go curl up somewhere. This awake thing is way overrated. Could I be experiencing caffeine withdrawal? I haven't been having it regularly, but I had most of a mocha iced thingy from Starfucks on Saturday.

Caffeine withdrawal only really affects heavy users, not occassional ones.

But the awake thing is definitely overrated. At least the "tired and awake" thing. I'd happily give up the entire sleeping process if I could be alert and functional instead...

Yep. According to both everything I've read, and personal experience, occasional use doesn't create dependance. Actually, even though I do quite obviously have dependance issues, if I detox myself for two weeks, I can then go back to occasional use, and not get the withdrawal headaches unless I use on ~3 consecutive days.
