Never enough time

This is one of those weeks I wish I would've taken a few days off of work to "just to stuff." I'm always afraid if I take a couple of days and having "nothing" to do then I will just end up running errands or cleaning. Blah. But seriously i've got some things that would be really nice to accomplish if work wasn't getting in the way. Here they are:
1. Making delicious Halloween treats - I haven't really been very crafty lately, but I REALLY REALLY wanna make some goodies to bring to work tomorrow.
2. Perfecting a pot of chili - also for work fun tomorrow
3. Getting a mani/pedi - we all know this is a MUST on my list AND it's my b-day weekend! How can I turn 3-0 with bad nails???
4. Finding a party dress - YES I decided I would be in a dress for the official b-day celebration next week!
5. Cleaning my car - ahh I am a clean freak and the rugs in my car are killing me after having the girls last weekend
6. Hanging pictures that have been sitting in our apt hallway since August-geesh

See??? Why am I at work??? WHY??

zzzzz's

This blog is aptly named after sleep. Why do you ask? Well I am a bad sleeper. I have not been able to sleep more than 7 hours in the last 5 years at least. I must always take something to fall asleep and even then it doesn't keep me sleeping.
Which leads me to my phone. It doesn't help when I never turn it off and it dings, beeps or rings all night. Now granted i've cut off alot of the middle-of-the-night callers, but my twitter updates and emails can't be cut off. Also i've come to find out that alot of people do not communicate with me in ways they should because "they know they can always get ahold of me." Lame. I always answer my phone. Always. So certain people have discovered they don't have to respond in timely ways because I will be available when they do. Not no more! I've started the habit of turning off my phone. Not at night...I will only silence it, because i'd hate to miss someone in distress. But at least twice a day now I will turn it off. Sometimes for ten minutes sometimes for an hour. Not to be mean, but the phone is a convenience, I am not. That's my point. So ladies and gents-if you need something after 11 PM or before 7 AM, you're going to have to plan accordingly:)
