I gotta wear shades

I have horrible sleep patterns. I need a quiet relatively dark place to sleep, and once I wake up after 5am, I usually can’t get back to sleep. this time of year kills me.

making the transition to going to sleep in a light room, waking in a light room, and trying to sleep through chirping birds is brutal for me. lately I have also been waking up around 3 am for some weird, unknown to me, reason. to top it off, the dog gets up around 6 wanting breakfast. the cat hears the birds and walks around the bed. what am I to do?

as the week drags on I just get more and more tired and groggy. I can usually recharge on the weekends a bit. this morning I was awoken at 5 am by something, couldn’t get back to sleep, and eventually just got up at 6:15 when Yoshi got up wanting breakfast. I was at work by 7 am!

maybe I should get one of those sleep mask thingy’s and learn to sleep with earplugs in. I dunno. I really just want a solid 8 hour uninterrupted slumber. ahhhh, now that would be refreshing.
