5:20 am...

It is 5:20 a.m. as I begin this blog post. Why am I awake? I'm not sure how it started, but I am awake because I have been awake for the last few nights. I can't seem to break the cycle. I wake up late, and I just can't sleep. They say to focus on when you get up and your bedtime will naturally fall into place, so maybe that's where my problem is. I need to force myself to get up and do something at 8:00 tomorrow morning... well, actually, just in a couple of hours. I'm not sure whether I should just stay awake until tomorrow night (which may not be so hard considering how late I slept in today... er... yesterday) but I do need to drive into town and I don't want to be unsafe. I suppose I'll stay awake, do my stuff, and get an early bedtime. Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Some exercise and a little caffeine should do the trick. I don't know why I'm having such difficulty, I had to deal with far worse last school year at college. Come to think of it, I'm going right back into it rather soon here. I'm not sure I'm ready... I have to learn how to reset imbalances like this more quickly... Hmm, on second thought, even a couple hours of sleep would be nice. Here we go! =P
