Fun with google: I'm the number one match for a search for "mad axeman of waltham abbey" at google.co.uk. I'm honored. =)

Friday morning, I woke up at 6:20am, to my second alarm. I looked at it, in a haze of barely-consciousness, and thought to myself, "Why is THAT going off? Why am I awake? I'm on vacation!" I then turned the alarm off and went back to bed for another three and a half hours. Needless to say, I wasn't on vacation any more. So I tried to go to sleep early Friday and Saturday nights, to wake up at reasonably early hours the following mornings - I was aiming at 9am. Well, Friday night, I fell asleep at 2am, which was pretty much as counter-productive as I could get...waking up at 11am didn't help. Saturday night, I fell asleep at a more reasonable 12:30am or so, and woke up at a marginally acceptable 10am. Ok, I'm thinking, I'll watch the new episode of Oz at 9 tonight, then go to bed. I made it to bed by 11...though I didn't fall asleep 'til closer to 12:30. And then I woke up. At 4:30am. Argh. Didn't bother trying to fall back asleep - my alarms were set for 6, 6:30, and 7, respectively, so if I *did* fall asleep, I'd've gotten MAYBE an hour and fifteen minutes of sleep, unless I turned off the alarms or otherwise overslept...which would be completely counterproductive anyway. So I've been up for about three hours, reading about the history of the Israeli-Arab conflict. Ah well - at least I'll get to work early.
