i have been trying without success to get back on a normal schedule. you know. awake during the day and asleep at night. that whole deal. i bought myself some over the counter sleeping pills, but they seemed to do nothing, really. it took me hours to get to sleep in the first place, and i kept waking up during the night. and now, obviously, i'm wide awake. "extra strength" my ass. but maybe if i can manage to stay awake all day today i'll have better luck tonight.

time to put a pot of coffee on, i suppose, and talk myself into making something of the day.

to do (i'm setting my sites low, folks. Rome wasn't built in a frickin' day.) list:

*1. putz around the house until noon.
*2. finish doing laundry. and find my skeleton shirt that's been M.I.A. for a couple months.
3. get a newspaper.
4. sit in the coffee shop and pour over the "Help Wanted" ads.
5. make a graph of "how much am i willing to lower myself?" in relation to "how badly do i need a job?"
6. realize after a couple hours that i didn't actually make a graph, or anything mildly resembling a mathmatic conclusion, but rather have been drawing pictures of naked women for the past 2 hours.
7. find no comfort in the above information, and throw away newspaper after reading the comics and working half of the crossword puzzle.
*8. call my health insurance agent.
*9. explain to aforementioned health insurance agent that my boyfriend accidentally threw away my insurance card along with all the pertanent information about what is/is not covered by my policy, and ask politely if this could perhaps be fixed.
*10. watch "Smackdown".
*11. avoid hiding in the bedroom when people come over.
12. call melvina.
13. stay up until 11pm. sleep until 6am. repeat.

* = completed task.
