Sleep.

I don't sleep well. Never have. I find that my best and deepest sleep is between 4 and 6am, most of the time. My husband gets up at 4am to go hunting on the weekends and it drives me insane. He tries to be quiet and not wake the whole house, but it's impossible. So the kids wake up and I wake up and we're up for the rest of the day. So, now I've had almost no sleep. I'm irritated and worse, I can't even find the motivation to get up and use this time to be productive. I just lie in bed watching tv; movies if the kids go back to sleep. Most of the movies I watch aren't kid friendly. As of this moment I am watching A Clockwork Orange which somehow gets weirder every time I watch it. This is one of those movies you need to watch a few times to understand. "English" English is very unusual. And even once you understand what they're saying, you can't possibly grasp what's going on in this movie. While the plot is very interesting, the artistic views are so abstract it's more like an acid trip. Not that I would know. I have an innate fear of doing drugs. I enjoy the general hippie culture, but have never done a drug in my life. I think most of my friends think I'm a pothead. But I'm not. I've been around it quite a bit and the smell of pot actually makes me sneeze uncontrollably. How did I get from insomnia to an allergy to weed?
