It's 4am, and I am AWAKE. A-W-A-K-E.

I can't sleep. I slept so much over the last two days that now I simply can't. It's almost 4am.

I still feel like ass warmed over, stepped on and dropped on my head, but on the bright side, with this early morning post I have succesfully completed another year of NaBloPoMo. YAY! Two years in a row I have succesfully blogged everyday for the month of November. It's a small thing, but it feels me with a sense of accomplishment. I hope to continue with the daily posting as long as I can.

I am a third of the way through my self portrait project as well... I'm behind on posting them, but I have successfully shot myself everyday since my birthday at the end of June. Here's hoping I didn't just jinx that project.

Well, I just took a dose of what I like to call "Mamacita's Home Remedy for Sleeplessness." Yup, Jagermeister. 'Cause NyQuil these days don't do shit, thanks to an overblown reaction to all the meth-heads in the world. And yes, I realize Mamacita is spanish and Jagermeister is German... sue me. It's 4am, what the fuck do you want from me? Fuckin' meth-heads messin' shit up for the rest of us... why don't you try heroin? I hear it's cheaper.

Considering how late it is, how tired I am and how crappy I feel I am surprisingly coherent this morning. (if I do say so myself) Ron has to be up in 2 1/2 hours... here's hoping I haven't kept him awake all this time. I have class all day Saturday and I don't know if I'm gonna make it though whole day...

I fear that once I am asleep I will sleep all of tomorrow, er, today, away. But I am sick, I shouldn't beat myself up over it, right? It's one thing to sleep through 2 workdays, but another thing completely to sleep away a day off. It seems like a waste to me.

Well, I should really try to get some sleep... every muscle in my body hurts, even my teeth hurt. My fingernails hurt. My brain hurts. I'm guessing this is the flu. I don't do flu shots anymore... long story... and it seems I have bet and lost this year. Ah well...
