Tired

Just got home from my concert tonight. It was long and tiring, and I hardly played during the second half because we were playing things like "The Phantom of the Opera" and "Ray Charles" in which the bassoon parts are doubles of the trombone/everything else parts, and you can't hear us anyway! So I just didn't play and saved my face for important parts....that and I wasn't allowed to play during much of the Horn Concerto because it was hard enough to hear the soloist....I didn't mind! The concert turned out...alright. There were a lot of people there, and apparently the bake sale was successful. I got some free rice krispie treats out of it!!! After the concert there was a band get together at Lou Manatis, which is a pizza place that ROCKS. This is the pizza place that we took Doug and his brother after we went to the museum. YUM. That's all I've got to say about that!

The halloween party that I went to yesterday was fun. There was somebody there making balloon 'objects' and the people who were having the party have four cats. FUN! I miss my babies......

On a completely different note, I don't know how I'm going to shake the sleeping routine I've been in for the past 5 months.....I keep trying to go to bed earlier than 2, but I can never fall asleep. I try to get up earlier, but then I'm really tired. Hmmmmm.....like last night/this morning. I was going to try to fall asleep before 12:00am, but then I got distracted by the internet, and then I couldn't fall asleep so I ended up watching HGTV until 3:00. Then Eric was up at 7:00, and I was awake from 8:00-9:00, and I wanted to stay awake, but I knew that if I stayed up with only 5 hours of sleep, I would probably collapse during my concert, so I went back to sleep until noon. Oops. Now I'm here and it's just after midnight, and I SHOULD go to sleep, but I know I probably won't be able to.

Sigh.

Everyone excited for Halloween???

Honey, don't fret too much about your sleeping pattern. Once you really NEED your sleeping pattern to be altered, I'm sure your body will cooperate. My sleeping pattern has been so messed up since I was ill - it was sort of normal for a while, but I find myself getting kind of tired again. Sigh! Either way, though, I'm sure your body will come through for you when it counts.

I love Hallowe'en! I actually went out last night to a Hallowe'en party and it was brilliant. I didn't get home until 7:00AM. Always a good sign. My costume wasn't what I wanted it to be...I wound up going as a mad scientist, though, and that worked. I wish I could hand out treats to the kidlets, though. I love to see their costumes. Hope your Hallowe'en is fun! Love you much. Oh, and once again, no q!

I swear that there is some sort of 'Blogger Ghost' that just know if something is said about stuff like word verifications etc.

Watching HGTV until 3 am!!!! MY, my you are silly!! I hardly watch that station at all anymore. I really got fed up with all the repeat and the fact that they have stopped airing any 'craft' shows at all. I've even given up on 'Trading Spaces'. I think that the home reno and do it yourself programs are becoming way too much. Every station has them now and that seems to be what all the programs are.

Glad your concert was good.

Love Ya!!!!! :) :) ;)

I guess I am kinda excited for halloween....unfortunately we aren't carving pumpkins this year (unless I decide to randomly pick one up in the morning). I totally miss pumpkin carving in the lownj, and if I am awake (from working nights right now), I might venture over to the uni for some free HUB cookies and punch. :):) My halloween costume this year is really boring. I will be a post partum nurse this year, mainly because I am working a night shift in post partum. This will be interesting as I have never worked a night shift on halloween before. Hopefully the Royal Alex ghosts are friendly!

Oh, PS....
Seeing as it is Halloween, Linda Blair decided to possess my hard drive again (something about an unmountable boot record???), so hopefully I won't be "away" too long! :(

OK, nobody can beat me for f....d up sleep. Try changing an hour or two at a time if you can. If you need to cange fast it's okay but you will be tired for one day. When I switch back to days I can NEVER sleep the night before. I'm tired that day and then exhausted when I get home so I go right to sleep. Try not to sweat it. I think you'll get back on track fairly quickly.
