Excessive

Besides the couple times I've had late nights at work and early mornings at school, I've been sleeping pill free for about the last two weeks or so, and it's been going okay I guess. It's more difficult falling asleep for sure, and I'm waking up almost as tired, so there is no real benefit beyond the knowledge that I don't have foreign substances in my body. It's hurt my ability to write, or at least the amount I write, as I've noticed... but I guess it doesn't matter, no one reads anymore anyway.

I woke up around 10:00am this morning after going to bed at... 3am maybe? Maybe it wasn't that late... I honestly don't remember, and that's kinda weird. I watched Return of The King last night and I'm pretty sure I went to bed right after that, but I don't remember what time it was. I woke up and felt tired but I was set on waking up at that point... I made some breakfast... a mushroom and mozzarella omelette with some bacon, but I had no coffee, so it wasn't the best breakfast in the world, but it did the job.

I balanced cleaning and relaxing quite well today, with the majority of the cleaning done first, opening up the rest of the day to do anything I wanted, which was a combination of Ocarina of Time 3D and Skyrim, with a nice dinner thrown in there. I started off by cleaning up the kitchen, doing the dishes from the night before and my breakfast, wiping down all the counters and cleaning the kitty litter, just doing the basic stuff. After tidying up a bit and the place being pretty damn clean, I figured I'd walk to the store to get it out of the way early so I could get laundry on uninterrupted. I listened to some music while I walked, picked up some things... dry cat food was the big item (as in the heavy, takes up a lot of space item) and I also got milk, bread, broccoli and cauliflower, air freshener refills and a few other things I'm sure.

Once home I unpacked my things, moved the washing machine into the kitchen and got on my first load of laundry. I playeed some Skyrim as I washed laundry, eventually moving it to the dryer and putting on a second load. I played some Ocarina of Time during the afternoon and didn't really spend much time on the computer... just played some Zelda, then Skyrim, and back and forth kinda.

Around 5pm I decided to get dinner on, which was beef tenderloin, mushroom, roast mini yukon potatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, baby carrots and a coffee and crunchie bar for dessert. I watched Jimmy Fallon while I ate, and eventually decided to play some more Ocarina of Time (can you see what I did for the majority of the day? haha). Dinner was great, and I was nice and full afterward... the first load of laundry was finishing up and the second was drying... I played games up until around 9pm when I decided to have a bath.

After my bath, I put on Boardwalk Empire, the season finale, and folded laundry as I watched. Once it was over, I played some Skyrim until Midnight, at which point I came in the computer room and began writing. I'll be going to bed once I'm finished writing, as I work tomorrow at 10am until 6pm, and Wednesday and Thursday I have exams, so I need to do some studying, or at least make a study worksheet.

Today was a good day... I felt good. I felt okay. I enjoyed myself and enjoyed the things that I did. I didn't care that I was alone, I didn't care that no one talked to me all day... I was content and that's what I'm after, always.
