I'm too tired to think of a subject.

I failed at sleeping again. I failed three nights ago, then slept like a champ the night before last, then woke up at 3am (BST) and never got back to sleep. Partly because the grand prix was on at 7am, but mostly because I had restless legs, or leg-nausea as I've taken to thinking of it. I don’t want to get into the habit of not sleeping. I’d be rubbish at it. On the plus side, the exhaustion’s really putting my run-of-the-mill brain fog to shame. I’m mentally negligible as a rule, but today I don’t even think I’d have the energy to run from an assassin. I’d better stay indoors. Actually I’ve already walked three miles today, but still.
I spent the small hours thinking about Patrick Stewart. He deliberately failed his eleven plus because he felt he’d enjoy a secondary modern more than grammar school, and he did. I like that. Shows an impressive degree of self-knowledge for an eleven-year-old. I hate the eleven plus. I can’t believe that was a thing that actually happened.
I wish I were Borg. Borg know how to sleep.

Date: 2010-03-28 11:44 am (UTC)I keep having proper sort of awful dreams where people I know are so awful and horrible to me and horrible things happen that I just don't want to have happened and nobody will listen to me and I wake up FURIOUS at about [exactly three hours after I fall asleep] and have to go 'oh, it was another stereotypical dream like people have on the telly and tell psychiatrists about, not a real thing' and then fail to get back to sleep anyway. It's weird, but I'm not entirely bored of it yet, which is nicer than dreaming about driving off things.
How was the grand prix? I decided I didn't care enough for seven in the morning of a morning that was already shorter than it ought to be. Schumacher did not die, I checked.
