OT: Grumpy Wednesday Morning
Good morning, everyone!
I've been a little depressed the last few days due to a boy issue and there is a lot of negative "Why Am I Not Good Enough?" thinking going on inside my head. I know I'm not being rational right now, but hey - I never said I was rational!
Anddddd I had trouble going to sleep last night - I was awake until about 1:30-2:00am. I woke up around 5:30 or so for some unknown reason, and then - JUST as I *finally* started to conk back out - I got the **** scared out of me at about 6:30 when I heard an enormous crash. Well, it sounded enormous in my half-asleep state. I thought someone had broken out my bedroom window, so I watched for a minute or two to make sure there were no shadows coming from the bedroom (I was asleep on the couch) and then went to check. No broken window. I went to the bathroom before I came to lie back down, and that's where I discovered the culprit ... My cold water knob is loose, and occasionally when my neighbor starts his shower, there is some weird vibration in the pipes that causes the loose knob to fall off into the bathtub.
Of course, my heart was beating like crazy and I was a little shaken, so I wasn't able to go back to sleep ... Now it's about 7:15 and here I am, still wide awake. I don't think that going to work today on four hours of sleep is going to be very much fun. Especially given that I am depressed and weepy.
I should probably take the opportunity to go for a walk since I'm awake while it's still cool outside but you know what? I am not in the mood. I do have to go to work today, but there's nothing to say I can't stay on the couch and watch TV and cry til it's time to get ready.

The mind sure can do some strange things to our thinking and thought patterns. I am sorry you had such a rough night and I surely would be grumpy too....heck I am grumpy because I am lacking sleep myself! I hope you have a better day Lauren!
