I feel like a zombie

[Duchess]

And I cannot shut my brain off to get a proper nights rest right now.

That's what often happens to me if I wakeup in the middle of the night. Once I start thinking, there is no going back to sleep.

OR

My senior cat stands in my bedroom doorway and yowls at me until I get up. This morning I threw a pillow in that little muthafuckas direction. He's not really a muthafucka, I love him to pieces, but he doesn't really want anything except for me to get up. Ugh.
