This week has been, well... an off week for me, at least when it comes to sleep.
Monday night/Tuesday morning: woke up around 300, had a tough time getting back to sleep
Tuesday night/Wednesday morning: similar
Wednesday night/Thursday morning: can't get to sleep well enough, and when I do sleep, it's only for about 10-15 minutes at a clip... and there were only a couple of those.
So, in the drowsed-but-can't-sleep state that I was in (even after taking Tylenol PM earlier that night, and trying a percocet in the wee hours), I called into work around 645, stating that I wasn't going to be in.
During the day, I try to catch some more sleep. I manage a small nap here and there, but nothing really worked.
Last night, I think I did manage to drop out sometime after 100.
Keep in mind that the alarm above my head goes off at 500, and the snooze lasts 9 minutes. This morning, I rolled out of bed at 730. I made it into work, and I'll be muddling through the day.
Once in a great while I'll get a bout of insomnia like this, and I'll have to burn a sick day in order to recover from it. That's what they're there for, anyways.

Mom-in-law arrived yesterday afternoon. She brought up my birthday present from that side of the family: the SR71 jacket I saw at Udvar-Hazy! It's a black MA-1 flight jacket with the SR71 Udvar-Hazy logo on it.
Fits like a dream!

Tomorrow night, C and I are going to the St Mary School Winter Ball. Someone gave us tickets to the bash, so we're going for free. We went last year. Food was decent, and there were games. Cash bar wasn't too bad. We'll bring money this time instead of hitting the onsite ATM. C was disappointed that we didn't dance. (Not that I'm one for dancing in the first place.) This year I'll see if they have our wedding song.
