oh hello feet and legs…

it's a good thing i'm not trying to go to sleep right now, because you're being very unpleasant

this is about the point when my brain wants to shut down to rest (despite the time locally), but my legs are having other ideas involving derailing that rest plan :/

hi again it me, still up. i almost got to sleep, but then got stirred back by legs. then i took an important phone call. now i'm alert again and this is ridiculous

latest restless leg remedy advice:

1) stop drinking caffeine [noooooooo]
2) maintain a routine sleep/wake schedule [but wait how if legs keep you awake idgi]
3) take a medication which may make your face puff out [what]

on the upside, maybe a more cherubic appearance might make me look younger and cuter but let's be real… i doubt that entirely (the whole 'a polished turd may be shiny but it's still a turd')

fun update

since last update 13hrs ago, there was two hours rest, followed by three hours rest, followed by another hour or so. some weird, short dreams happened, and i've forgotten them. i'm still drowsy, but awake, so it being 3:30 local, i might try to sleep again.

pleasantly, the windows are open and there's been a steady, gentle rain for the last hour. it sounds wonderful
