I'm suffering a triple whammy of sleep-suppressors, despite my eyes having to work hard to stay open:

- Restless leg syndrome. Just took 2000mg of niacin to try to tame them, as well as a dose of magnesium. They always get jumpy when I take a lot of benadryl.

- And I have taken a lot of benadryl because my allergies were out of control this evening. I still itch like crazy (mosquitoes, how I hate you so), even after applying tons of anti-itch creme, and taking the benadryl, and drinking tons of water with vitamin C... Bandaids have been applied so I don't rip my skin open tonight (and dream about it, as I did last night).

- And I also got a sunburn that's messing with my thermoregulatory system liek woah.

So I sit here, completely ready to shut my eyes and sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeep, but can't cause my body is stupid.

Serves me right for not going to bed at 9 when I thought I should. Ah well. Geoff-time is good, too.

Yeaaaugh!!! May this concoction not keep you from sleep for long, and may you sleep very well when you do.

Well the triple whammy of niacin, magnesium and food seemed to calm the restless legs enough for me to relax, which helped with the other bits. So yay, a bit of sleep!

And now to go try again. This time without the benadryl haze. :-)

Thank you, although, having dreamt about him the other night, I wonder if this wasn't his fault for intruding on his privacy... ;-)
