You Think I Would’ve Learned

I've been having a bad bout of insomnia again lately. Even when I can sleep in, I can't. Even though I have to get up for work at 5am, it's not uncommon lately for me to be awake at midnight. Frankly, it's starting to worry me a little.

I know my sleep deprivation has to be the cause of a particularly stupid act on my part last night. When I got home from work and sat down at the computer, I kicked my shoes off in the walkway to the door. I glanced down at them later and thought to myself that I really should move them. Well, not once, not twice, but FIVE separate times I tripped over them in the dark walking out of my room.

The final one was when I had come back to close down the computers for the night and not only did I trip over the shoes, but also bruised my ankle on a step stool and jacked up my right wrist when it slammed into the wall to keep me from falling. Yeah, my nickname is Grace.
