my sleep patterns have been all fucked up since i got home from thailand. well, i guess it started shortly before my return. i had a 6am flight, so 3:30 taxi to the airport. i had a few beers then went to bed around 9:30pm; only managed to sleep one hour then awoke nervous and anxious about my return.
sometimes i can sleep on planes. this trip, however, was not one of those times. i slept for about two hours on the flight from tokyo to seattle.
so, by the time i got home, i was operating on about three hours of sleep in 36. that was friday. i took a nap for four hours or so on friday, hoping that would get me back on track. no such luck.
saturday was filled with emotional anxiety -- what an awesome way to get back from a really relaxing vacation ... *sigh*
night before last, i was asleep by 9:30 or so, after a big steak and half a bottle of wine. i woke up around 5:30, raring to go. i suppose that's 8 hours, so not surprising.
and then there's tonight: i went to sleep around midnight. woke up briefly at 2am, then again at 3:30. here it is, 4:30 and i'm wide awake. maybe i'll put in a movie in hopes i'll fall asleep again while watching. if only i were a predictable movie sleeper like some people i know.
i suppose this is making me a little grumpy. well, this and the aforementioned emotional anxiety, which is still present. i hate being grumpy. i suppose i also hate being a whiner. not sure which is worse.
this sucks. welcome home, eh?
