I have slept really well the last few nights. I don't know if I can pinpoint it to anything I have been doing differently or any difference in my mental state, but for the last week or so with the exception of pass out Thursday, I have been sleeping well. It's about goddamn time. Maybe it's the new job, maybe it's the new commute because I am walking 2 miles a day I am more tired, who knows. Who cares. As long as I can finally be normal in my sleep again.
Had a great day yesterday. Got up in the morning and rearranged some furniture in anticipation of the child being here. I was able to get the one couch out of her room and into mine. This allowed me to move her dresser out of the closet as well as her hamper and I moved a nightstand into her room where I set up her sewing machine. I haven't told her any of this and I hope she likes it.
After that I headed to the city with a friend. He has lived here almost 2 years but has spent no time in the city. We didn't do normal tourist things though. First we started at this ice cream which has been on a number of tv shows and is the serious straight up bomb. I had their 'Secret Breakfast' (bourbon & cornflakes) and the 'Harvey Milk & Honey'. He had the Peanut Butter Curry with Blueberry Boy Bait. From there we went downtown and spent the next 5 hours going into every store that was open. We even paused for lunch where we had chocolate malted cheesecake with marshmallow meringue and malted croutons. Best part is besides a thing of bubble bath, lunch, and the ice cream, I didn't spend any money. I tried on at least 50 things, but was good on all of them and said I have to think about it. Got home around 6:30, watched a little tv while finishing my leftover salad from lunch, and went to bed.
Perhaps that's part of it - I have been forcing myself to go to bed a little earlier some nights. I was in bed by 9:30 last night. I didn't fall asleep until 10:12, but I was in bed at least.
Off to work for one day as tomorrow is the kid's graduation!!
