Because my ill-advised decision to read about horror things I know freak me out would have to go up against the exhaustion blahs my period forces on me?
Yeah, I forgot that my period also likes to inflict nasty night sweats on me too. I could NOT get comfortable for the life of me -- I kept having to throw the covers on and off. And that got my imagination stirred up, and -- well, bottom line is, I didn't get any sleep AT ALL last night. And despite my attempts to power through it at work, I eventually had to succumb to the need to leave early because I was literally starting to fall asleep at my desk. Kind of embarrassing, but better to leave and get the nap in rather than be useless there -- and it's not like I don't have sick and personal time saved up for these moments. Learned my lesson, though -- not touching that franchise ever freaking again. And now I know where the Advil PM is kept, so if I struggle with sleepytimes again, I know what to do. (Not that I think that'll be a problem tonight, considering I half-slept through the bus ride home and had a full-on hour nap once I got back, and I'm still feeling kind of out of it. Though I fully admit that could also be partially because of period blahs.)
Weirdly enough, the day has not been a total loss productivity-wise -- I managed to stay at work until 1:30 and got my two main tasks of the day done. I recovered just enough over my lunch break to do DW replies, which I will be slapping up shortly for everyone's entertainment, and I'm just finishing up tumblr queue stuff now. And I even did a gift drabble for Christmas after supper! So yeah, even sleep-deprived, I can get SOME stuff done. Go me.
However, I'd like to feel something resembling refreshed tomorrow morning, so definitely making this an early night. Sleep tight, everybody!
