Current mood: crappy
I don't feel well today. I asked Marcus to turn the furnace on this morning because I'm absolutely freezing. I would've just stayed in bed to keep warm, but I'm having the worst cramps today. Yippee. Marcus, Mike, Nina and I are going to Las Vegas this weekend to attend Mike's sister's wedding. I've got so much to do before we leave, but I can't leave my house. FedEx tried to deliver my printer twice yesterday, but the first time I was at school and the second I was at work and Marcus wasn't home yet. Argh! I don't even dare get into the shower yet.

I just heard on WB2 news that Cub Foods will be closing all of it's Colorado stores on November 15th. Damn it, that is where I prefer to shop. This so totally sucks!

I would hate to be that guy at the Cubs playoff game yesterday that interferred with the player catching the foul ball. If the Cubs had won, they would've gone on to the World Series. Now they have to go to game 7 tonight. I hope for that poor guy's sake that the Cubs win.

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.

Current mood: awake
Well, no big shocker here after the last post, but I'm thinking the insomnia thing is a result of my financial crisis. Sure, my conscious mind believed that I wasn't doing too bad, but my subconsious knew. Guess that's why at 4 am I'm wide awake again. The stress has also caused a whole bunch of canker sores to break out in my gums. Ouch!

I wish I had no self-respect and could start a site like Save Karyn. I'm in no mood to deal with the backlash that comes with online begging, though. Can you believe that chick wrote a book about the whole thing?

Current mood: UTTERLY exhausted
I can't win, I swear. After I got from work today, I tried to take a nap. I think I slept about an hour until I was rudely awakened by a dog STANDING on me. I guess he needed to pee and I wouldn't wake up. Damned dog.

It was a good thing I decided not to wait around for that delivery guy to finish up yesterday. I was told that it took him over two hours to unload the truck (including the 20 minutes he spent on his cell phone). I have a strong feeling that guy isn't going to be employed very long.

Historical note: Californians voted to recall Gov. Gray Davis yesterday and elected Arnold Schwarzenegger as the state's new governor.

OK, I'm off to bed. Keep your fingers crossed that I don't pop awake at 3 am again.

Current mood: exhausted
Why in the hell can't I get any sleep?! I am soooo freaking tired, yet when I go to bed, I can't stay alseep. I've gotten a sum total of about 7 hours of sleep in the last two nights. I even tried to take a nap yesterday afternoon and couldn't sleep. I don't want to resort to sleeping pills, but I can't take this much longer. This so totally sucks ass.

One a positive note, if I can't get any sleep, at least maybe I'll finally get the things done on this site that I want to do. I need to put a smiley hack on my entry page (like on the comments page), fix my archives, put a link to my photo gallery, do a design for this page. BTW, does anybody have some good directions or a link for putting collapsing inline comments in Movabletype. If not, I'll just check out Scriptygoddess or the support forums when I get home from work today. Thanks!

Well, guess I better get my butt off to school.
