I used to be like that, then got trazadone, then a couple years in vicodin, and now I've shunned both of those and am back to waking up thru the night. Not nearly as bad as it used to be, but some days it's very hard not to go back to bed. Even after two cups of strong coffee.
I can't blame cold weather, it's still shorts weather here....

That makes two of us, since it's not like I was out late partying. Haven't had a drink since my 21st birthday and I don't mess with anything else either. But the body seems to need no such excuse these days... cold weather means not enough sleep cause I can't *stay* asleep, and that ultimately culminates in being so sleep deprived that I crash for 16 hours and wake up feeling like I've been hit by a truck. Starting to feel slightly more human now... just a few hours from the time I *should* (but probably won't) be heading back to bed. Oh well - having to get my sleep schedule re-sorted is better than not being able to sleep at all. Thanks for the good thoughts, all. I missed you too. :)

just so ya know.....i missed you the most. blush.gif

Not nice to talk about wearing shorts when we're all freezing to death.

I have to take a hefty dose of vicodin just to be able to get my feet on the floor in the morning, so it does nothing for sleep and just takes the edge off for pain... I refuse to move to anything stronger because I've got a good system going as far as keeping the vicodin effective at reasonable doses, but it does mean my sleep schedule gets seriously wonky when the pain's bad enough. I've got ambien kicking around, but I don't like using it unless I have to cause it tends to make me sleep-eat and sleep-internet. ;)

Cool, it is here too... but then again for the locals any temp with 2 digits without a negative sign is t-shirt weather here :) It got a slight bit chilly a couple weeks ago when we had highs around -17 & were waking up to -30, but as long as you had a hoodie, you were good. :)

I'm the skinniest polar bear you'll ever meet :D

I'll take cold over hot any day. I can always put on more layers. I'm too Irish to expose skin. The last time I wore shorts we had a string of blinded traffic accidents. Air traffic. From 3 counties over.

Edit: I'm actually half Irish & half Lithuanian. Yeah, the Russian side doesn't help the complexion, but I still get 99% of my appearance from the Irish side of the family.

Ummm, incorrect, he had a premonition that you would be coming so it was precognitive writing of his impending rendezvous with a new Ginger that was to be put into song! :D
