Sleep Diary, 2/15

Observations/Effects, Sleep Diary Add comments

Went to bed around 1 last night. Maybe 2. I forget. I fell asleep fairly quickly… 15 minutes or so. Woke up at 7, should have gotten up but didn’t… went back to sleep, got up around 8:30.

I wasn’t 100% sure yesterday that I remembered to take a pill, so I made absolutely sure I did today. Not really noticing a difference with it. Guess the first couple days were a fluke? Not sure. Might be that the dosage isnt high enough, or needs to be spread out, half in the morning and half in early afternoon or something. Or maybe I should have gotten up when I woke up just before my alarm went off and I was really wide awake instead of hitting snooze and waking up groggy 90 minutes later. Ah well. I’ll try again tomorrow.

Going to try and force myself to make it to work between 7:45 and 7:55 every morning next week. Might give my coworkers heart attacks though. :)

Oh. And Ann got the flowers today. The 1800flowers people never called me back. Bastards. She doesn’t do valentine’s day (she didn’t tell me that til after they were ordered…. but I would have done it anyway). But to my view, there are two ways to do flowers. Having flowers delivered to someone at work, is not so much about them getting flowers, it’s about them receiving flowers in front of their peers. People will see them and know someone cares enough about her to send flowers, which raises her esteem in their eyes subconsciously. I can’t take credit for that, really… something I learned from Nicole (she always tells people to only send her flowers for any reason on mondays so she can have them on her desk and get compliments on them all week long). Of course, for N., I think making the other girls in the office jealous that she got flowers and they didn’t was also a small factor, but Ann doesn’t seem to be like that. I dunno. The fact that the students might tease her a little about it may be a small factor. :)

I hope i haven’t given her the impression that I only give flowers on holidays. I do them ‘just because’ too… particularly if I think they might cheer someone up a bit.

The other way to do flowers, is the way I prefer… choose them myself at a florist, maybe even have some role in the arrangement, and deliver them by hand, in private. Not a gesture for others to see… purely the gift of a special, momentary beauty from one hand to another.
