So as it turned out, I did have much more energy than I usually do on Fridays. I went to the library and did a load of laundry, both things I had hoped to do. I also did a remarkable amount of cleaning--remarkable by my standards, anyway. What I accomplished was both much more than I could have expected and far too little. Gah, there's so much more that needs to be done.
And in the meantime, a row of some little bites on my leg--bites which I managed to ignore yesterday--has taken over my brain tonight so that I keep thinking to myself, "What if it's bed bugs? What if it's bed bugs? I don't want bed bugs! What if it's bed bugs?" Well, so what if it's bed bugs? No, I certainly don't want bed bugs infesting my room, but I've been bitten by enough Asian tiger mosquitos this summer (frequently in daylight, in my bedroom, or both) that one more bloodsucking insect shouldn't bother me so much. Besides, aside from one group of bites of unknown origin on my leg, I have seen no sign of bed bugs at all--and I have certainly done enough cleaning in places where signs of their presence should be expected were they here. Additionally, the housemate next door hasn't noticed any evidence of them either, and I do believe she would notice. So, with all those reasons for me to calm down and stop worrying... I'm still thinking about it way too much.
Dear Brain: Why is it that when you are (I am) sleep-deprived, you keep coming up with more reasons not to sleep? I'd really like to break this August's cycle of insomnia, please.
