I sleep really badly recently and it could be one of the following three things:

* Medication
* Too much drinking because I have no willpower
* Hyper awareness of all sounds due to having a toddler that may do something incredibly stupid in the night


I've gotta do some a/b testing poo poo here.

wasn't trying to flex - usually when i have a lot of weird dreams I wake up a lot in the night and then i am tired in the morning

I get temporal lobe seizures (hence the meds) and they're like hosed up weird dreams so I can't tell if I'm having them at night or just having crazy dreams

probably both

I slept well and don't have to be anywhere but woke up at 6am anyway so now I'm tired

I had the dry off so I slept another hour, then skated 14 miles and drank a bunch of beers so I'm all set for a day of being tired tomorrow

does this ever end? I guess when we're dead?

genuinely can't tell if I'm sleeping badly for no reason or sleeping badly because I'm subconsciously listening out for some sort of toddler initiated carnage

its the latter

i went from sleeping soundly 8-10 hours a night to immediately waking up every 2 hours when the kids showed up

that's surprisingly reassuring

the other factor is my wife blowing her nose super loud from 4am onwards from some allergy

old people got it right by sleeping alone. Maybe.

I started a new job, have no idea what I'm doing or how anything works and I am super tired from it.

Otoh because I have no idea nobody seems to expect anything tangible so as I'm working remotely I went to sleep for 30 minutes after finishing nursery drop off.

E: went to sleep for another hour in the afternoon as well

oversized rodent of an apartment dog above me decided to start yapping and playing with its bouncy ball at midnight last night and guess who couldn't fall asleep again afterwards :whitewater:

one of the reasons I moved house is that the adjoining neighbours had a poorly trained beagle that they didn't take out enough and that fucker barked constantly which went right through the walls as they did not have a single soft surface in their house so there was zero sound absorption anywhere
