The laughable state of the sleeping schedule.

[cimorene]

So the other day I went to see a psychologist and on the way there, I discovered my bus card was out of money. I can't speak Finnish well enough to talk to a bus driver (they rarely speak English), and for the record, I never want to repeat the long conversation that I didn't understand again. >.< So after the session (I enjoy speaking to psychologists, but it leaves me emotionally exhausted) I went into town and walked around with the [insert ominous music] BIG CROWDS OF PEOPLE for a couple of hours.

Then, of course, when I came home I was emotionally exhausted even more because of the Crowds of People Panic I'd been holding back, but I was too keyed up to sleep right away. I stayed up till the usual time, but then when I fell asleep, I slept for almost sixteen hours and woke up at 5 pm. I wanted to fix my sleep schedule, so I stayed up all night and took a brief nap yesterday morning before we watched Torchwood (thumbs-up) and then I went to bed early, at about seven pm. Perfect! Right? Wrong.

Because even though I woke up when daylight first came through the curtains, probably at around 9 am which was when I planned, the Crazy was lying on top of me, and I fell asleep petting her and woke up again at 1 pm. So I've slept this time for even longer and am groggier than ever, because the pressure changed while I was asleep and it's raining with a dense, foggy mist that fills the whole sky with pearl-grey so I can hardly see the buildings across the street through it. That sort of weather always makes me fuzzy-headed.

Here, have some She-Ra.



The weapon that produced that bubble is Hordak's diabolical "Laser-Bubble Blaster". Horrible! Absolutely horrible! And no doubt after he caught people in his clear floating bubbles, he was planning to put them in uncomfortable cells, or even give them as slaves to his eeeeeevil allies, who would make them sit on the floor all day without a bath like the Queen of Harpies did to Queen Angella.

Gah. I'm stressed out just reading that. And so very glad I'm an English-speaker in an English-speaking country.

I didn't realise he was still talking to me at first. He made a gesture and I was like "oh, okay" so I got out my wallet while he pulled away from the curb and then after I gave him the money and he gave me the receipt he still kept talking, but he waited a minute first and he talked for such a long time! I thought he'd just turned on the radio for a moment because his back was too me, but then when I realised he was talking to me - and he must have been, even though he didn't stop and wait for an answer, because there was only one other dude on the bus, way in the back. *shudder*
