Insomnia

Last night I couldn't sleep. Despite being really tired, I just lay there with thoughts running through my mind until I finally dropped off around 3ish I guess. Trouble is, I was up again at 6.30 for work. I am sitting here, waiting for 8 o'clock when we start feeling like utter crap.

The espresso and cup of regular coffee I drank before I came out don't seem to have had any effect, although perhaps they are just taking a while to kick in. I am worried though - in my haze as I walked out the door this morning, I forgot to turn off the coffee machine. My coffee machine doesn't have an 'auto-off' feature, so two things worry me about this scenario.

1) I am going to get home tonight and my apartment will have burned to the ground.

2) It's not going to catch fire, but it's going to simmer away all the coffee into a thick brown sludge that is a nightmare to remove.

Either way, it's not going to be pretty!
