Why am I so freaking tired?
I just popped a bunch of headache stuff to get the caffeine effect from it. I feel like I could fall asleep standing up, and it wasn't like I was up late. Anyone else draaaagging today?

6. No. No turkey.
The thought of food is unappealing. Blah.

23. Strike my aforementioned bellyaching.
I think the caffeine kicked in. Now I'm jittery and feel like a meth-head. Is there no happy medium?!

28. Want to know what caused a mini crisis in the household yesterday?
Don't tell, but I think I have the beginning of a little line on my forehead. :cry: No one else can see it, but no one believed me when I started pointing out gray hairs on my head, five years ago. I thought this crap all started in one's mid-thirties. I'd better start saving up for the boob-lift now.:scared:

31. Your defeatist attitude is not helpful.
I keep telling myself I'm 29, so that I'll be pleasantly surprised when my birthday rolls around and I'm *still* 29. I plan to do the same with 30. It's just a number, anyway, right? Right?!

Not today, but for the last few days.
It has been brutally hot here the last couple of days, finally cooling off last night. I didn't sleep much for two nights, and then got up early each morning to get stuff done before it was too warm to work.

Good luck getting some sleep tonight.

12. Hot weather in general seems to suck the life out of me.
I always feel energized when we have a nice, cool day. I don't think that's in the stars for today, though.

You must be punished most promptly and thoroughly!

20. Aw, there's nothing wrong with having an eye for aesthetic details.
Your need for scantily clad women engaging in spankings must have been satiated by your dreams, last night.:P

18. I was up at 2 a.m., trying to get to sleep, when I heard these
bloodcurdling screams coming from outside. So I turned my light on, and I looked outside and didn't see anything, and then for the rest of the night I was scared to turn my light off. And at, like, 3 a.m., my parents noticed that my light was on and wanted to know why. And I told them about the screams, and they said maybe I just dreamed them. But I had just turned off the light 30 seconds before I heard them, because I had been up watching television. So I couldn't have been dreaming, because I was wide awake.

So that's why I'm tired. Don't know why you're tired, though.

19. That and near constant, profuse sweating, yeah - I'm exhaused too.

Still, nobody's perfect.

25. Sounds like you have physiological reason to be.

33. My counselor says I'm over-sensitive to physiological reactions...
Though after telling her of family conditions and how my el-cheapo glucose reader, with new test strips, has read abnormal levels, I think she is suggesting I see the doctor again.

And she is right in that anxiety worsens things, but I can't seem to find a better job... so I have to endure what cannot be cured. :D (She was surprised last summer when I was turned down for so many. It's not abilities. It's how one sells one's self and I don't picture myself often as a job whore... joho... :rofl: )

22. Because you were kept awake all night
with the guilt arising from your naughty naughty rumour mongering. :P

I do not recognize the concept. :P

29. See you don't even understand it
no wonder you didn't recognise it.

You may pretend to be a wicked amoral person - but we all realise what's underneath...infact I'm tempted to go into your rumour thread and suggest that you're really a lovely sweet person who would never really say a bad word about anybody, and feels guilty everytime she swats a fly. :P

34. i was recently tired all the time and i couldn't explain it.
the doctor sent me for some blood work and found i have some slight anemia. A B12 shot and added daily vitamins are helping me to feel a lot better.
