Is anybody else awake at this hour?
Couldn't sleep any longer than 4 hours.

Might have to do with the steroid shot I had Thursday. :crazy:

What's goin' on?

:hi:

2. Had a steroid shot in my spine Thurs. Feel a little like Superwoman today! lol
Wonder when I'll crash & burn later on (?).

Is it getting cold in N. CA yet?

5. It's that fall weather that can't seem to decide what it is.
We'll have a few perfect days, a hot one, a couple of cold ones, etc. I've resorted to both my AC and my heater this week.

16. Oh heck no, she sleeps like a rock. Me on the other hand, I'm a very light sleeper. Although I could
go back upstairs and turn on the lights and the stereo......:evilgrin:

9. At least it's an hour earlier in the East
Wish I could turn on the TV. But it wouldn't be a very nice thing to do to my hubby.

There are some recorded shows I'd really like to watch, but they are on the DVR too close to the bedroom. :-(

21. Been there..
only, sometimes I toss & turn so much before going to sleep, there's little point to going to bed early!

24. Ick... don't like that drug
Took it once and got extremely moody the next morning. Had to leave work early because I couldn't stop crying about some kittens scheduled to be euthanized. Thank God, I had an understanding Supervisor at the time (who has since been fired :-( ). Almost ended up with a total of 6 cats! Luckily for me, and the peace in my household, the kittens were adopted by the time I got to the shelter. I never took the stuff again!!

26. I'm up! It's 5am here in Washington. Been up since 4:30. Started thinking.. and..
well you know that is the wrong thing to do at 4:30am. So I came here.

Wish I drank coffee, though... cuz I'm too tired to be awake, and too awake to be asleep.

Think we might be excited about Nov. 4th, already? I know I am. And, yes, you are so right... 4:30 a.m. is too early to be thinking! :-)

30. Yes, unfortunately, my aunt felt the need
Edited on Sat Oct-25-08 08:19 AM by Jamastiene
to wake me up at 8 o'clock this morning. I don't even remember what time I passed out last night. I can tell I haven't slept long enough though. I'm nauseated and hungry and grumpy and my eyes won't open up more than little slits, there is dried gunk in them anyhow and everything is blurry. :hangover:

Mmrrrmmm...grumble...grumble... x( I want to go back to bed until the nausea stops. I'd never know if I got pregnant if nausea was the only symptom. I have ALWAYS been nauseated in the mornings. I hate mornings. x(

Whoever invented the hours between 6:00 a.m. and 12:00 PM needs their ass kicked. Where are they? I'll do it. I hate mornings. :hangover: x(

Sorry to hear you're having trouble sleeping.

33. I very rarely have trouble sleeping... once I get to sleep!
I know it's the steroid injection. Happened yesterday morning, too, only I managed to go back to sleep and sleep until 11 a.m.!! Maybe I stored up on sleep. Feel a second wind, coming on, now that I started doing some laundry.

Hey, at least my face isn't flushed red, any longer, like it got yesterday after physical therapy (and stayed that way all night)! eeek! Glad that's gone. :crazy:
