Almost 1 am on the even of a huge work event. Over 400 people have gathered in the city from all over the country. I am here as staff support and the next week is going to be insane! Our programming is schedule from 8 am to 9 pm until Monday.
And I am laying here, exhausted but unable to sleep.
Just like last night, and the night before that and the one before that ...
I've been averaging about 5 hours a night for the past week. Hours of laying in bed, using a coloring app, reading, listening to a podcast, drinking bedtime milk, meditating, breathing exercises, weed gummies ... Nothing seems to work.
There isn't enough caffeine in the world to get me through this week if my body can't get it's shit together and let me sleep.
I do have a lot going on in my life right now. It hasn't been the most peaceful month. So it's understandable that my brain doesn't want to shut down. But I desperately need it to!!!
Send coffee! Send sugar! Or just bring a frying pan to knock me out!
