rmd | i *heart* sleep (Reply)

i love sleep. besides the relaxing restful effects, sleep is critical for separating one day from the next. yesterday i was feeling kind of down about the job and money situation, which was cycling down into feeling bad about all sorts of other things. i spent the evening with claudia and she patted me while i talked about all the irrational stuff going on in my head.

and then i slept.

and sleeping did a wonderful job of separating yesterday from today so now i don't have the inertia of yesterday's unpleasant thoughts. i mean, i'm still worried about things, and nervous about upcoming money issues, but it's more in line with reality than yesterday's pile of worried concerns was.

and now i have paid my mortgage and am waiting for the oil delivery guy and i have a pot of hot tea that i'm working my way through.
