I can't get to sleep, I think about the implications....

I'm sitting here at my computer, eyes wide open, staring at the white glow of my monitor and wondering why in the world I am up at 3am.

It would be reasonable to assume that I am awake because I've been up writing a paper.

Reasonable, but incorrect.

I actually finished my paper that is due tomorrow...er...later today at around 10 or 11pm. I've indulged in a little television and decided I would get to bed around midnight or 1.

After tossing and turning for a few hours, I'm still wide awake and have no idea why. Last time I had coffee was nearly 10 hours ago if not more. I'm tired. My head hurts. And all I want to do is go to bed and sleep.

But I can't.

Insomnia wins again!

blast.

well at least in three and a half days time I'll be done with my first semester of Graduate school, 1/4 of it down, 3/4 left. Already a bit of a milestone that I'm kinda proud of (that is, depending on my grades :S)

Give me a chance to hold on...

Today I woke up after fifteen some odd hours of sleep. Not good you feel greatly rested sleep, but Nyquil and sickness-induced stupor that leaves you not wanting more sleep or to be awake. Which leaves me where?

Well right here, writing this blog entry in an effort to avoid even moreso doing these essays that are slowly becoming more and more pressing. I am nowhere near as far along as I would like, but that is ok. I will persevere. (Must believe this...)

The photo in this entry is the one that I think came out the best from the UF PhotoVentureGanza. I wish I knew a better way to frame it, I couldn't find a sort of photoshopping frame that I liked around it so it is now, as is.

Anyway, I'm off to do some more work (woo!) Any thoughts, notes, love, prayers, chicken soup, warm chocolate chip cookies, and offers for writing two 15-page French Papers on something I could care less about really interesting topics are greatly appreciated.

P.S. In an ongoing theme of me complaining about weather in Florida. It is now the 3rd of December and it is not forcasted to have a high not in the 70s for the next 10 days. How depressing.
