Wednesday: I was home sick, dozed/slept for most of the day (~10-5), but barely managed to eat a small amount of yogurt in the morning, and couldn't even finish a carrot for supper. Then I woke up around 1:30 in the morning and tossed, turned and dozed while having weird and frustrating fever dreams until nearly 5:00. If Amanda hadn't gotten up to get me some Tylenol and milk, I'm not sure what would've happened. But thanks to her, I finally *slept*.
Thursday: I was home sick again, but was joined by Amanda this time. I managed some yogurt in the afternoon and ended up just cooking Kraft Dinner and hot dogs for us because it seemed like something both easy to make and easy to eat. Then I went to bed, where I tossed and turned for a really long time before giving up and taking some melatonin. (It normally works pretty well for me on sleepless nights, but it tends to give me vivid dreams, and after the weird dreams I had the previous night, I really wasn't eager to take it). I finally fell asleep, but woke up nearly two hours before our alarms were set to go off, and couldn't fall back asleep.
Tonight: it's after midnight, I've been up since ~5:00, and I know I need some sleep, but I'm pretty much wide awake.
So, let me reiterate my original question: why is it that when you need something the most, you're unable to get it?
