Trouble Sleeping

Posted by Kristy on August 24, 2009

Something highly unusual happened to me last night: I had trouble sleeping.

I have had some trouble getting to sleep on occasion for the past couple of months. But once I fell asleep, I was out until morning with very, very few exceptions. Last night, though, I fell asleep quickly. But around 2:00 am, I woke up and stayed awake for about 30 to 45 minutes. And after that, I woke up about every hour and had a hard time going back to sleep.

Now I feel… strange. I stayed up after putting Pumpkin on the bus, and I’m not really tired, more like wired. I’ve felt like this before, but that was back in my younger years when I could get away with only sleeping 3 or 4 hours a night with few repercussions. Still, I have a feeling that I’m going to crash here in a couple of hours.

I don’t know what’s going on. I didn’t take any herbal weight loss pills that might have given me an energy boost before bed last night or anything. I’d like to think that whatever it is that has caused me to have no energy for the past couple of years all of a sudden resolved itself, and now I’ll have boundless energy for the rest of my years. But I’m sure that’s just wishful thinking.
