Insomniacs, man your stations!

[RoJoHen]

Well, after a whole week of going to bed and waking up at normal human hours, my insomnia is back! I knew it would be. It always comes back.

It just sucks because I have gotten used to waking up to the sound of my coffee maker at 7am, and now 7am is going to come, and I am going to feel like death.

It doesn't help that my mind is completely preoccupied right now. I have a month to find a place to live out in the Quad Cities so that I can get back to my old job and start making money again before I go completely broke. It's so hard to house hunt when you live 2 hours away!

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

I can only imagine. But i'll be up for several hours yet so i can keep you ... company.

 

[AstroSmurf]

Yep. I am up as well. I haven't slept all week though and was half expecting to finally crash today. I guess not.

But I usually get like this when I am worried too. Business has been slow and I am still looking for a second job. Money is getting very tight and I am obsessive compulsive. I hate paying my bills late. It makes me freak out.

 

[RoJoHen]

I've got a team out there working on finding me a house.

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

Yay for friends.

 

[Geckothan]

I don't get insomnia, but I do pull multiple consecutive accidental all-nighters from watching crap on YouTube until it gets light. Am I welcome in this thread?

 

[ShamelessMcBundy]

If you're up late, sure.

Hang in there, bud. You had the guts to get this far.

 

[RoJoHen]

I'm with ya on the bills, AstroSmurf. I got to a point last week where I had to sign up for another credit card because I just don't have enough cash coming in right to pay all my bills.

 

[Crusher Disciple]

I just started these new meds and they're keeping me up weird hours.

 

[Zulu Romeo]

I'd like to declare myself welcome in this thread too, as I instantly send anyone to sleep as soon as I start talking.

I should be available on prescription.

 

[RoJoHen]

Ugh, my living situation just got even more awkward.

A friend of mine wanted to rent me her house. Problem: her house sucks balls, and there's no way I could live there for how much she was asking. However, she seems to be under the impression that I am definitely renting it, and she's already making plans to do things with the extra money from my rent.

She's been paying a mortgage on this house for 2 years even though she hasn't been able to live there. She's so excited to finally be making some money back on it!

Now I have to break the news to her that I am not moving in. She's going to be so upset. It might destroy her soul.

 

[The Boy Who Cried Worf]

No insomnia here, I am just a night person. Usually never go to sleep before 4 or 5. The other day I got to sleep at 7. I would be just fine with it if only the rest of the world went along with it. Ironically tonight I am going to bed early. Doc gave me a new med to try on those nights I absolutely have to go to sleep early so I am giving it a test drive tonight.

Tell her you can't live in there with all those ghosts.

 

[RoJoHen]

It's seriously one of the worst houses I've ever seen. Two of the three bedrooms are roughly the size of my walk-in closet. The upstairs bedroom's closet is actually a crawl space with a dowel rod running through it. And when she showed me the house, the carpet was covered with dead bugs because the outside door has a 1/2 inch gap between the bottom of it and the floor. I wouldn't live in there for free.

So you are going bak to your old job? You were bartending at TGIF right? Did the new job not work out?

 

[RoJoHen]

Yeah, that's what I'm doing, plus I will likely be taking on some managerial duties as well. The new job fucking sucks. I have been lucky to make about $50 a week. I basically have enough money left to move back, and that's it.

Oh, I am sorry to here that. At least you know your old job is happy to have you back after all those times they pleaded with you to come work.

 

[RoJoHen]

Oh yeah. I might not be full-time right away when I get back since all of my old shifts are currently being covered by other people, but I don't think it'll take long to get back to where I was. They like me more than the other people anyway.

My part time job is like that. I finally got to the point that I couldn't afford the gas to go down there.
