Because I know you all care. Oh so very much.
It was suggested I try some over the counter sleep aids, just to give myself a nudge. Basically, I found out they are Benedryl without the medicine – just the sleepy factor. Took them Monday, didn’t appear to have any affect. Took them Tuesday, and while they didn’t make me fall asleep quicker, I did manage to fall asleep at a reasonable hour and only wake up ONCE during the night but was so incredibly groggy all yesterday. So my plan was to take them EVEN earlier last night to see if they’d kick in and prevent me from being the walking dead all day today.
Last night my friend Liz and I had dinner. After we returned back to my apartment so that A.) we could watch America’s Next Top Model together and B.) so that I could take the pills even EARLIER than I did the night before. Bonus that Liz is in the medical field and could actually witness what affect, if any, these pills were having on me.
Well I took them at 8:00 on the nose. She left at 9:30 and I was not sleepy in the least. In fact, I tried on three outfit options for today and modeled them all for my sister. And after just hung out in my bed.
Basically, my body hates me and nothing will kill the Insomniac Beast living inside of me. But I promised to try this for a week. So tonight, we’ll experiment again.
(Can you sense my HATE? Because it’s there. IN FULL FORCE.)
