Excessive

Today was my birthday and I'm now 38 years old. I'm sure I could sit and write about the history of my life and where I've been and where I'm at now, but the time doesn't feel right for that right now. Instead, I'll simply write about my day.

A few days ago Bekki and I did a flight of Sauvignon Blanc from three different wineries, and two different regions. It's always fun and interesting to put a single grape varietal side by side and see how terrior and wine makers can shape the flavors in such dramaticly different ways.

This morning was pretty much you're normal morning, although I did sleep in. Yes, I didn't open my eyes until a quite late 8:00am. I did have trouble going to sleep last night, I had decided to write on here, and figured I couldn't very well play games while doing it, so I sat down, put on the first episode of Star Trek: TNG and wrote, but as I'm sure you know, the first episode of TNG is a double, so it was quite long. I needed the time for sure, as I had a pretty hard time getting back into the flow of writing. While I do still "think" in terms of writing quite a bit, it's nothing like it used to be. I decided to rewatch TNG due to a recommendation from Ben for a podcast that follows the series, where after you watch each episode, you can listen to a podcast episode that comments on the episode. It's a fun and interesting way to rewatch a series I've watch many times over, which gives it some new life. Okay, so I was talking about waking up and went on a tangent, but that's okay. I got up late, I try to wake up at 7:00am, the kids try to get me up at 7:00am, and I'd say I usually get up by around 7:15am, which is when my fitbit vibration alarm goes off. This morning I got out of bed at 8:00am.

I surprisingly did not wake up with a headache this morning, something that doesn't happen as often as I'd like. Lately I've been waking up with very intense sinus headaches (at least I think it's sinus headaches, how would i know?). I'm sure it's related to a nasal spray I've been using for the last few months, but it's always hard to tell, and difficult to know if I should stop using it.
