Shampoo a day later than average.

About 4 hours of actual sleep in bed. Clearly not enough especially when it is easy to fall asleep in chairs but harder to fall asleep in bed. Memo to self. Get more exercise.


Other than that, Twitter now thinks I want not only completely nonviolent protests in Khabarovsk but the crack protestors' heads protests by people trying to make changes through elections in Minsk. Not to mention the various flavors of protest in Seattle: some of the time I care about issues. Some of the time I really only GAF about how do the protests affect my ability to go where I want to go on the bus. 


As for household chores, I WILL Get trash out and maybe even wrangle refrigerator life forms but today I washed my hair. I was going to do it last night because it did not fit into the schedule before that yesterday but the night wound up indulging in one video after another, worthwhile even though I fell asleep part way through every single one. Sleep hygiene? What's that. Sleep as self- care self-care as resistance. Party on. It seemed like all the blind prayer warriors where similarly beset though so maybe just own the state of things


And yes, to anyone wondering about the mental health status of posts about DDT in the deliberate double meaning mentioned yesterday, what comes today is:

--Persist

--lighten up and have more fun

--Try to avoid killing off the pollinators.


and of course keep trying to solve sleep issues.

Holy Cow. Almost 9 hours of sleep. The extravagant luxury of going back to bed and not even trying to do anything after 5.9 hours of sleep. Going to bed at a reasonable hour because of not wanting to compute in the computer lab with no AC helped.  I decided I needed to get up and eat a real breakfast after a dream involving my certainty that I needed to take a shower in a tiny restroom near a big event of some kind and then enjoying a lot of food that I found tasty and it was not clear whether others realized it was available. I probably can go all kinds of places with that. Computer lab has AC. Room where digital equity team works does not. There is some kind of switching mystery that not even one of the very wise SHA HVAC experts can solve. Nice to see the computer lab space in use. And for exercise I will ride under desk bike to nowhere for awhile at an hour too late to be a good idea. Also I MUST scrub floor and wrangle refrigerator life forms. Count how many days I say that be...

About six hours of sleep. I should have gone back to bed. CPAP is a little bit of a workout but I think that will settle down. Mom's tree after all the presents were unwrapped Christmas with the fam went brilliantly.  First there was a chauffeur schedule that left me time to talk to Mom about latest non-locating of my brother while nephew fetched his parents. We did snack food and did not even attempt anything complex in Mom's "one-butt kitchen" Little Sister brought Little Smokies, one pan in a sauce I did not expect to tolerate made of commercial BBQ sauce and grape jelly. Little sister brought rolls and fruit salad. I brought crackers, cream cheese, beet chips and celery the latter of which I think I was the only one eating. So the rest of the bunch gets sauted and frozen for soup.  I brought yams to microwave if anyone wanted but kitchen logistics clobbered that. And we finished with mandarins and no one even wanted cookies and ice cream. Mostly I am SO GLAD Mom d...
