Why? Well, damned if I know.
I guess “putting it off” isn’t accurate, but whatever. More like it’s been evading me. For a decent amount of time now, but more so the past few weeks, it seems.

I believe the main reason is because of my constantly shifting work schedule these past two months. 12 hours at night, to 8 hour days, over to 8 hour nights, and now going back to 12 hour nights.
Seriously, I need a roadmap to keep up with all the twists it’s taken.

Hey, you’d be throwing stuff on the floor if you were this confused too…
Sleep isn’t the only thing affected by these constant shifts either. Your eating schedule also gets totally out of whack. One week you’re sleeping when you usually eat, and the next you’re eating when you should be asleep!
But even that one, as much as it sucks, pales compared to the lack of sleep. That’s the one that really kicks your ass hardest. A day or two here and there? Yeah, stuff happens. But weeks/months on end of deteriorating sleep? I’m about ready to get off this train, thanks.
I’m hoping next week is the last schedule change for at least a little while. In the meantime, don’t mind me if I randomly pass out on a couch for 40 minutes here and there.

This looks like as good a place as any to….zzzzzzzz
Have a good one, folks. And if you get good sleep, consider yourself very fortunate indeed!
