Posting this at 8 AM invalidates its authenticity

unless you're in another time zone eating cheeseburgers & beer...

Yeah, one thing I want to do when the hamsters run is open my iPhone and give them some light

[Drunk Monk]

Aw those poor hamsters

All alone in the darkness

No wonder they run

Finally got 8 hours of sleep. Furst time more than 6 hours in 6 weeks

Nice. Must be the cheeseburgers & beer.

I got 8 hours last night too. I did get up in the middle of the night to pee but went straight back to sleep. I usually sleep 6-7 hours nowadays.

I’ve been looking forward to this morning because I could sleep in. But I popped wide awake a little after 3, and awake I still am obvs. Been over an hour. Got up to pee out of boredom.

Unless this is the dream. It would be a stupik dream, a waste of subconscious. I’ll know tomorrow if this post is real or not. 

Ok, I think I can go back to sleep now…

Only managed one sleep cycle despite being exhausted from sdcc. It’s habit from the last 3 nights. If I could just get down again, I could get 2 more much-needed restorative hours…
(9nly picked up my phone because I’ve been staring into the dark void for the last half hour)

I drank a vietnamese coffee this afternoon so I wouldn't fall asleep at Spidey. Now it looks like I won't fall asleep until tomorrow...

Of course I’m tweaking pre-flight but it’s ok. It’s a 10 hour 40 min flight. Happy to sleep then.

And we’re back
Good ol’ Jet lag
I was 16 hours in transit including the train to the airport, the mad dashes through Kyoto & Tokyo airports to compensate for my cancelled flight, the car sickening shuttle ride to retrieve Darth from svale, and getting caught behind traffic just prior to summit on hwy17. 
Got home, crashed for a bit, ate & started laundry, restarted my Mac because Stacy unplugged everything to shut off the back up battery alarm, took a fistful of herbal sleep aids and went down after sunset. 
And here we are, wide awake at 1:30 am.

I was awake at 2am. So many squirrels running in their wheels. Made the mistake of checking my email. Saw two notices from the IRS. That only helped spur the squirrels on.

I slept well last night. Got to bed before midnight and was asleep until 6ish. I was dozing off watching TV so I went down around 10 this night but popped awake about an hour ago. I just got up looking for some sleep aid herbs Stacy left out for me but she put them away and I can’t find them so I dropped some melatonin and nite cheese. 

I’ve had a nagging headache since I got back; it ebbs and flows but now it’s flowing. Pounding like waves. And my tinnitus has been at eleven. Man, post trip jet lag sucks. I’m glad I built in the holiday weekend to absorb it.

Tried to stay up until midnight watching a screener that I was into but started dropping out so I stopped halfway through because it’s for an interview on Labor Day so I fella out an hour shy. Just popped awake about a half hour ago. This holiday weekend is all about the reset and I’m failing but I’ve got another night or two to make it right. I did NOT nap today, and that was with a minimum of caffeine, just some earl grey in the morning and some green tea I got from Uji. Just popped some sleep herbs and am waiting for them to kick in. I couldn’t find them last night and Stacy had put them where I looked right in front but I missed them in my insomniac haze. Skipping the nite cheese because Yuki needs to sleep.

Ah, there’s a yawn. G’nite.

[Drunk Monk]

Those herbs aren’t working
Neither is the whiskey
Should not have skipped the nite cheese
