swestrupWell, I finally slept, but I'm awake again. It suddenly occurred to me just before I finally drifted off, just what the problem might have been last night.
When I woke up I mentioned taking a headache remedy. Since the headache was severe, and sleeping when over tired is one of my migraine triggers, I took some AC&C, which is what I take when I feel a migraine coming on. The second C in AC&C is for Caffeine. Used to be that much wouldn't affect me, but now that I don't get any in my coffee, I guess it was enough to prevent me falling back asleep again. I suppose I'll just have to remember for now on, that if I'm not getting up immediately, nasty headaches get treated with ibuprofen. Bleah.
Anyway, I got two blocks of 4 hours, so technically I've now had 8, but my body can't add, so it feels like I've had four. Actually thats not to bad, since I wanted to be up between 5:00 am and 6:00 am tomorrow (I made an early appointment, on the assumption that it would be late for me. I had planned to be waking no later than 4:00 am on Thursday). I suspect my body will be quite willing to sleep come 8:00 or 9:00 pm.
For now though, I need to sit here and drink more coffee.
