With midterms, moving, and other issues, I haven't been getting much sleep lately. I guess yesterday was the last straw for my body or something. I got out of class at 3:40 and grabbed some Little Caesar's on the way home. I was done eating by a little after 4, and decided to lay down until that uncomfortable "too full" feeling went away. Well, next thing I know it's midnight. Somehow I managed to sleep for like eight hours, in my full clothes and shoes, with the lights on, and without the heat on. My cat, who I always take into the bedroom when it's time to sleep, was confused as hell. I had a small paper to write for class the next day, so I opened my laptop to begin writing. This was at midnight when I had woken up. I managed to write less than 2 lines before I fell asleep again. This time, still in my clothes and shoes, and now with a laptop on my lap. I woke up at 6 in the morning, only because the laptop vent was burning my stomach. This time I was rested enough to get up. I had just enough time to take a shower and finish my paper before class. I was well rested for once, but starving. I hadn't eaten since the pizza at 4, and it was now 8AM the next morning. When I got home from class, I had mac and cheese and a Lunchables.
So now my sleeping and eating patterns are way thrown off. Usually, a 16 hour nap would be a blessing, but it's kinda screwed with me for now. Luckily I don't have class again til Monday at noon, so I have plenty of time to get back to normal. Word to the wise: take care of your body's needs in moderation. Or eventually, it'll take care of it for you.
