sleeping, and hunger.

same_skyM called me on his way home from work, and I had to give him the bad news--I already ate his dinner. I was hungry, and it was delicious. My plan was to eat half of the remaining salad in the fridge, and then grill some sandwiches for us both when he got home and he could eat the rest of the salad. Alas, it was yummy and zesty and delicious, and so I ate his too. Oops! I told him that Ducky was hungry, too. I hope that took some of the sting out of it.
I've been having trouble sleeping lately. I have no problem falling asleep, and certainly no problem with waking up for the day too early, but I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night for no particular reason. And, this wouldn't be all that annoying except that I will come completely awake and realize that I have been awake for an hour (actually, an unknown amount of time because I have no sense of what time it is or was.) During that time, I'm a little bit asleep, just as you are when you're drifting off to sleep and are unaware of what's going on around you. The problem is that I'm doing this once or twice a night, and I am therefore getting quite a bit less sleep than I normally do, and that's in addition to the once or twice per night I wake up to go to the bathroom. I'm not typically a big waker-upper at night, so it all adds up. This week in particular, I am getting up at six in order to be at work by 7:15, and it's an almost physical pain. I don't have to be there early, but I generally prefer it to staying late. I guess I should stop doing that if it puts me in a foul mood, but on the other hand, by the end of the day, my back is usually hurting from sitting still in a chair all day, and that doesn't put me in the best of moods, either.
It's still worth it.
The lack of sleep may be part of the reason why I'm in such a horrible, horrible mood this week. From Tuesday's terrible headache to Wednesday's sucktastic soul-snatching worthlessness, to today's general apathy. Tomorrow is, at least, Friday, and so the end is near. I could use a personal health day. I do have Monday off, at least.
I could also use some ice cream. Soft serve ice cream, without hot dogs lurking inside. We saw a commercial tonight where a banana split was being shown in all its luxuriousness, and then suddenly, they unzipped it like a jacket and there was a hot dog there, and I err, I screamed out loud. IT IS NOT RIGHT, DAIRY QUEEN. Do not sully the ice cream with processed meat products!
And now you know why M has been spending a lot of time in the basement this week.
Actually, he hasn't. He has completed the first round of the walls in the other room, and sanded them. It's now ready for round two, but that probably won't start until Saturday. It is theoretically possible that there will be primer on the wall this weekend, if all goes well. It is also theoretically possible that we paint said room a shocking shade of lime. It was my idea, and then M got on board with a vengeance and now I am about to chicken out. We have light maple and chrome desks, and I would like something on the walls that would contrast. As much as I love the masking-tape color on the walls in here, it doesn't really go well with the desks.
Did I mention that I am hungry?
