Mr. Sandman, LEAVE ME ALONE
From time to time, I go through these periods where I just cannot stay awake. The last week or so has been like that. Yesterday I got up around 7 or 8am. Later I went back to sleep and slept until around 5:30PM. I really don’t like this pattern when it hits. Right now I’m very sleepy as I type this.
I have been resisting it on many of the days. Drinking coffee to stay awake. Sometimes that didn’t work either. I always blamed it on lupus but the doctor said people don’t usually go to sleep with lupus. I asked some of my lupus friends and they said yes, it happens to them. One called it a coma sleep. I prefer to call it the zombie sleep.
I feel sleepy after writing the above. Now its another day, I’ve been awake for an hour and I’m falling back to sleep again! I just “ordered” some coffee but Jessie is not yet moving, but since she’s curled up around me, I guess I’ll get over it. :)
I believe I need to stay awake, go for a walk and see if that wont get me back on a human schedule. Getting a bit concerned at this point but usually if I just go ahead and “sleep it off,” the fatigue that is, I perk right back up. Usually doesn’t take this long.

hi Rusty,
I hit your blog from time to time and I wish you the best. I enjoy your postings and I just hope that I will some day make a visit for short or longer period in the Phillipines.
Take care of yourself man, health is very important.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for coming by. I hope you’ll leave your thoughts more often. Blogs like this, with many topics have problems keeping loyal visitor as the topics change so often. That’s why I have so many other blogs, to keep my favorite topics moved to other locations where people might be more interested.
Yeah, health. I should have never started on these cigars… :) they are so good though.
