    Default I am too damn grouchy to work

    Now here is the thing about stripping. Any other job - hell, even when I'm in school, I have to do it whether I'm tired and irritable or not and I just blink at people a lot (in my imagination I'm a very communicative blinker). Stripping not only CAN I skip, but I know damn well that I'll just wind up not making money because... well, I'm irritable.

    I can't sleep, and I lie in bed staring at the ceiling (I turn on my ceiling fan so I have something to concentrate on, and then I turn it off because I'm cold). Then I close my eyes and stare at the backs of my eyelids. I intersperse these activities with, like, chronic, mechanical masturbation (like, this is supposed to release chemicals of some kind that are sleep inducing, right? Or is all this masturbation for no reason?) Either way, I'm not happy. (Hey Cally(ish), do you still have the insomnia? Maybe we can do some 24 hour Toronto. We can eat some french fries and make fun of homeless people or something). I used to go out and walk around and stuff... but I don't really like walking around the new neighbourhood at night. It's not exactly that I feel unsafe, but I feel sort of uncomfortable. I'm not that interested in TV and I can't concentrate on movies, and I do feel, deep inside, that sleep is there and if I lie still long enough I'll catch up to it.

    Alright. I'm going out. I'm buying some valerian and if I don't sleep for 4 consecutive hours tonight I'm going to my damn doctor. Okay. It's decided. This was my rant. It is unfocused, but... such is my mental state right now.

    insomnia is the DEVIL

    i haven't slept without chemical assistance in about six months...unfortunately, 24 hour toronto isn't as much fun as it used to be...i think all of the things that used to keep me busy at night are starting to get old...

    Jenny, you're another woman who thinks way too much. I do this too and I suffer from insomnia myself.

    I just notice that women suffer from it more. It's almost getting to be the norm for most of the women that I know.

    Our minds are always racing. How can we expect to sleep if we can't relax enough to let sleep take hold?

    Hope the valerian works for you. I love it but I get immune to it and have to take a break from it so I lie awake for a week then go back to it. Anything else makes me too groggy for work the next morning.

    I'm like this too and I cannot survive w/o Tylenol PM. Unfortunately they don't sell it in Canada, but I can bring you a bottle when I fly up next week if you want. I wanna be included in 24 hour Toronto!!

    Try Sleepeeze. You can get it at Wal-mart or Shopper's. I suffer from bouts of insomnia and rely on these! Also having a hot Neo-Citron helps too!

    I feel your pain Jenny!

    Oh man....I feel your pain. Few things fuck with me the way sleep deprivation does. Have you tried exercise? I know it sounds really simple and might be a useless suggestion but it always wears my ass out. I remember when I lived in rural areas as a kid and had to do lots of chores (stacking firewood, mowing the lawn, helping my dad build things). I'd sleep SO good afterwards and you can do all your thinking while you're being active. Set limits on how much you're allowed to obsess on thoughts. Did that make any sense? Hope so...

    Cool! French fries and mockery for everyone!

    I I did sleep last night with some borrowed meds. My roommate noted that I tend to get all insomniac with any change in routine, and with school being over and going back to dancing full time, ya know.

    You know how on TV people who have insomnia stay up all night, like, writing concertos and novels, and accomplishing so much with their lives? Why can't I do that? (I mean besides the sheer laziness).

    LOL...I'm like that too a lot. I'll be super depressed all day, but as soon as the sun goes down I feel better.
