I fell asleep on the living room floor about nine, I think. Kept trying to open my eyes whenever Rob came by, as if I were trying to prove I wasn't asleep. Crawled into bed whenever it was that Rob told me he was going to sleep.

Woke up at five, woke up at six... then GOT TO SLEEP AGAIN! Woohoo! I slept until eight and then lay in bed for another half hour. Amazing.

This breaks a run of about four weeks of not sleeping enough. I am relieved. When I'm not sleeping enough (usually due to stress) my immune system gets baaaaad, and this weekend I gave it some challenges. Fingers crossed.

I feel bad that I basically kicked [livejournal.com profile] rampling out of the house yesterday because I was so tired, though. I'm sorry, [livejournal.com profile] rampling! :-( Next time I will be more awake and aware!

Oh man! That is very tired indeed! Glad you got to catch up on sleep. Also it sounds pretty funny. :)

It is funny, I admit. :) This happens to me from time to time - I get into a mode where I'm regularly waking up after six or seven hours of sleep. Something about the low-grade sleep dep accentuates the stress, which in turn encourages me to wake up more quickly. It usually ends with a total crash like last night.

No prob 'bout kicking me out -- I understand. And 'twas so lovely to get to pet your kitties (including your poor Duchess) since I was in serious kitty withdrawal.

But... we should get together again for more sometime! Hopefully I'll visit Up There again sooner this time.

Oh phew. I did want to apologize. It was only something like eight-thirty and I was just *useless*! I was getting to the point where holding a conversation wasn't even working all that well.

Another visit in the future sounds like a great thing. I hope you have the energy for another trek north some time soon!

I do appreciate you letting me know what was up. Nice to understand it wasn't that I was annoying you or something like that. :)

I think this trip did me some good, contributing to encouraging me to get out of my negative energy spiral. So I really oughtta do more! I'll see what I can do....

Oh, you totally weren't annoying me -- except that a brain is required for conversation, which I admit was somewhat frustrating but isn't specific to you ;-). Glad the trip did you some good! Excellent! Maybe it will be part of the boost you have been needing. One can hope.

That's the best part -- I am feeling hopeful now. I needed that! :)
