Sleep has been hard to come-by. Several occasions, i would get-up, turn the light on and amuse myself so i wouldn't be bored and inactive, not that i'm not trying to lull my consciousness to sleep, but no matter how i close my eyes and allowed my vision to be enveloped by darkness, i just couldn't fixate my restless mind, and my body too.Factors that i am aware of, which contribute to this recent uneasiness are: transition of working hours from early morning to evening shift, some financial issues which usually compound themselves come payment time, the weather - the hot, uncomfortable feeling in my room, and other insecured musings that only thrive during the lonely hours of the night.
Most of the time, i would just read through it, a book to peruse until my eyes grow so heavy that they just fall by itself, not withstanding Dali's toothpick, and just drop like being sealed in a cave. I would write too up to a certain hour, and when i noticed that it's getting really late, i would lie down, and would fall asleep with the conscious idea that my day tomorrow will be crappy if i do not get at least six hours of sleep.

Thanks for linking to my blog!
I have suffered from insomnia on occasions. I have tried not to let it bug me - if I can't sleep I get up and do something useful and then it does not seem that failure to sleep was a bad thing.
People can survive on surprisingly little sleep - it is the worry that you are not getting enough that is truly debilitating.
Thanks for the visit. I've been sleeping well lately and this has to do more with having my normal sleep pattern back. I also think that i often push myself to be active at the wee hours, because i yearn for the privacy and solitude of the evening. I guess daytime is when i do all the worrying :)
