Counting Sheeps

It’s strange.

For so many years, I have struggled and pushed myself. Hour after hour and minute after minute… all to fit some mold that I have written down for myself.

My lists… My schedules.

All so stupid. I’ve been running myself ragged the last few days – all in the pursuit of fulfilling tasks on the page… The sleep deprivation resulted in daytime fatigue and frustration.

What I need to do is force myself to sleep. I’ve had at least two physicians tell me that I need to “unplug” and go to sleep.

It’s unfortunately not that easy to turn my brain off.

Sadly, I’ve run today on about one hour of sleep. What a hot mess that is.

Bah.

I guess it’s time for me to go count sheeps.

…I mean count sleeps.
