Stayed up all night...

Jun 27, 2005 18:03

I know I need my sleep... ...but I've had such an active mind lately. I started believing sleep is an option not a necessity. Last night as some of you know I stayed up with my husband going over a 'playlist' of songs for my sisters farewell party! The list... is really long and I'm sure not all the songs will be played but anyhow... before we knew it it was 5am. I get a message from dondant wondering what I was doing up so early? She was starting her day and I hadn't ended mine!! I tried to stay awake because I was enjoying a conversation with dondant... but my head was dizzy from lack of sleep!! Then All about Locke aka "SillyD" signs on... this only made me try harder to fight my sleep!! But when I looked in the mirror and appeared a pale greenish color I knew it was time to go to sleep! By this time it was 8am!! I fell asleep and woke up 3hrs later... 11am was up and still groggy! Picked up a few things I needed to get... and headed... here to my sisters house. I started to think... why do I have such awful sleeping habits... this has gone on for longer than just the time I have enjoyed on The Fuselage and here on the LJ. This goes back... at least 7yrs ago. I was in college and would stay up late studying... my best writing, if you can call it that, was done late at night. Then my artwork... the best work has been done overnight? Ive completed a whole painting over night... it's just how I work best. BUT I don't want to keep these bad habits because my body and face show my lack of sleep!! Seriously, Im scary looking. Ha ha ha!

So as of today... (it scares me to say this) I will attempt to be in bed at a decent hour (which is 12 midnight!) Although of course there will be the occasionaly party and events that will cause me to be awake late... but aside from those I will go to bed before midnight!! There you have it!! EEeeek... I just need my sleep. I don't regret last night or my 3hrs of sleep ... because I had a great time with the husband... I cherish that time... but sleep is needed and I will be healthier for getting it!
