I've been battling with an old problem again: "crashing", or falling asleep... before I actually go to sleep.

This problem seems to come in phases. I'll be mostly fine for a little bit, then it'll start again. Usually just running out of gas while, say, finishing up one more thing I need to do. (or in some cases I'm just too drained to get ready for bed)

It's especially annoying when you add work to the equation. It means I get less "normal sleep" and most of it's just "oops, I made the mistake of settling for a moment" sleep (this sleep actually really does hit me quick - often feels like it doesn't even take a minute.)

the most annoying thing about it today is it means I can't return a DVD to someone, since I haven't finished ripping it yet. damn it. at least it's just seven and a half hours only on this shift.

also I got a pair of shoe inserts. here's hoping those help my feet a bit.
