Insomnia

I’m so close to finishing nursing school…but I often feel like I don’t want to finish.  Why?

I feel like a creative spirit…yet I don’t feel like I create enough.  Why?

I want to eat healthier and get into better shape…but I don’t put in the time or effort.  Why?

I’d like to join a dance class of some sort…yet I’m too scared to commit.  Why?

I want kids…but am I any where near having them?

Am I happy?  I’m not unhappy…but I feel…what?

Thoughts have been running through my head nonstop lately, but I don’t know what to do with them.

As I lay down to sleep tonight…I’m wide awake.  Anyone who knows me, knows this is very strange.  All I normally have to do is lay down and less than 5 minutes later I’m asleep.

Not tonight.  Tonight I ask why.  Why do I feel this way?  What can I do to answer these questions?  Is there anything I can do to answer these questions?

Do I get up and go do something?  Be “productive”? 

It’s 5 am…maybe I’ll try to sleep again and let my dreams sort this shit out.

Year 2 - Day 163

I’m stuck.

Stuck in an unmotivated rut.

Days have passed…and nothing has been accomplished…

It’s nice that there are no emergencies or major stressful events at the moment, but why am I wasting my days doing nothing? There are clearly things that I need to do, even things that I want to do, but instead I lie around wasting time doing…nothing.

And the worst part is, I know I’m doing this…and don’t change.

Year 2 - Day 162

Forgot to take a picture today.  So here’s a picture of part of the poetry section at Moe’s in Berkeley, CA.  We didn’t have much time to browse…but it was a truly beautiful site and I hope to get back there one day.

Didn’t know what to take a picture of today…still not a fan of the “selfie”…

This is an awesome candle that I got for Christmas.  It’s a wood wick candle and it crackles as it burns.

I absolutely love it.  Every time I sit down at my computer, I light it.  The sound it makes is so soothing.

Year 2 - Day 157

I took the red eye back home last night.

Unfortunately, I made plans with a friend to meet for lunch…but took a “nap” before I needed to leave.  Instead of sleeping for 1 hour…I slept for 4!  I felt so bad that I stood her up!  Luckily, I was able to see her later at her house.

I also made sure to stop by ‘Cue and see everyone.  I missed those guys!

Year 2 - Day 156

We took a road trip to Berkeley, CA today.  Just the two of us.  I found a list of “fun things to do” around the area online and found that near the Berkeley campus was a neat hippie shopping district.  Aside from the crappy, grey weather it was awesome.  We found out that they not only had another Rasputin store but also Amoeba Music.  Talk about trying to restrain ourselves from spending hours there and tons of money today!  :)

We also found a really cute metaphysical shop and I got a beautiful piece of labradorite.  Plus the clerk was really cute and nice to talk to.

Got hungry…and stopped for a yummy slice of pizza from Fat Slice.  We also got some ridiculous chili cheese fries before we headed home.

It was a great day.
