Since last Sunday night (November 26th), I've only been sleeping about 6 hours/night. This past weekend, I went to bed at 5AM on Friday and Saturday-- and woke up at 11AM the following mornings, unable to fall back asleep.
Last night, it was midnight when I got to bed (after a day of finishing my Kaplan GMAT study book, running 3 miles and rock-climbing with a few guys) and I woke up at 5AM this morning, unable to get back to bed.
I decided to get up and do some meditation, to try to clear my head for the day and shield myself from negative energy. And I left my apartment, feeling pretty peaceful-- having cleared my head from still thinking about these people I saw at these two parties I attended on Saturday night.
But as soon as I got onto the entrance of the West Side Highway, I noticed that it was jammed and I couldn't back out.
A car was overturned near the 79th street entrance, so I sat in my parked car for 15 minutes-- still feeling pretty peaceful.
I got to work around 8AM (traffic was fine and I avoided this accident in Stamford, CT by taking a local road...) and surprisingly, I was actually able to finish up much of my work and focus pretty well (probably thanks to the meditation).
I had dinner with my mom and sister in Chinatown and visited a friend at for a bit (and BTW, her dorm had the most annoying security officer ever! He wouldn't let me in, saying that I had to call her through the non-functioning intercom... and then when I asked him to call her through his desk phone, he claimed to not be able to-- only to have his equally stupid supervisor call her on another non-functioning intercom. The moron supervisor guard told my friend "you have a delivery"-- do I look like a friggin delivery person, given that I was not carrying any food??-- through ANOTHER broken intercom, and just presumed that she'd get the message. I eventually had to call her through my nearly dead cell phone to get her to come downstairs... Even more frustratingly, though, the security officer chased us down as we went to the elevator, saying how my friend needed to show ID and I needed to also keep an ID down there-- as a "frequent visitor," which I am NOT. Who the hell did this fool think he was??). But anyway, these gatherings were fun and the evening ended all right.
Now it's past 1AM and I am still up.
Will I wake up early again? =/
