Elusive Z's

I've spent most of the last two weeks with a headache that ranges from moderate to nearly debilitating. In addition, I go through alternating phases of body aches and feverish skin sensitivity (the kind where your clothes hurt you). I feel pretty shitty, in general. By the time I get home at the end of a day, I'm exhausted to the point of paralysis. My body is screaming at me, "I'm not well, please recover." So I took a couple of days off from work to try--and slept pretty much the whole time--but was only slightly successful in my attempt.

I know that what I really need is to get more rest; I've only gotten about 12 hours since Sunday. The best word to describe the maelstrom of an (ill) insomniac's mind at 4am is: despair.

With a long-anticipated weekend of fun & excitement ahead of me, I've got to figure out a way to finally catch some z's.

Sorry to hear that. While you're laying around sick you should go into the blogger settings and turn on the RSS feed.

If you need a sedative I have plenty. I'm like your local CVS, except better. And if you're really nice, I might even let you borrow some Xanax. I'm rooting for your health.
