Plans Gone Awry

I was supposed to be getting up shortly to go to the monthly Tech Entrepreneur Breakfast, followed by going to the Blitzweekend 5 a 7. Well, the first is now a write-off as I woke up around 11:00 pm and haven't been able to get back to sleep.

Social events of this ilk are always stressful for me, and I can't cope if I haven't had a good nights sleep. My only hope at this point is that I'll manage a 3 or 4 hour sometime this morning, and will feel up to going to the latter event. I'm not holding my breath.

Still Don't Know.

Well, I managed a three hour nap this morning, and woke up feeling like total crap. Thats not too unusual a result of me taking a nap, so I may end up feeling up for going out by the time rush hour rolls around at 3:00.

On the other hand, I'm beginning to think that the not able to sleep is a symptom of something else. Over the last couple of days (since joenotcharles's 30th birthday party, actually) I've started having hot and cold spells and my sinuses are acting up. I wonder if I may be coming down with something.
