I've always had an awful habit of following my heart into complete irrationality. 

You know it's going to be along day when you wake up with the same (agonizing) headache from the night before.

If I had a job, I would have insurance and would be able to get my sinuses operated on so a) I wouldn't get these headaches and b) I could breathe.

The only time I can sleep comfortably is during the day, and this lack of sleep doesn't help when I have to work days now.

I've been going through a lot lately, and it's definitely beginning to take its toll. I'm weak, I'm sick, I'm an emotional wreck and I'm in the process of losing every little bit of motivation I have to do anything.
