RantWoman Sleeps--or Not

RantWoman is a grown up. It is RantWoman's responsibility to get to bed before 4 am especially if she wants to be up and functional in time for a conference call at 10 am with hair washed before that. Was it zen or not? Should RantWoman have sat on some content? RantWoman has sat on some content and more to say / do has come along vai the conference call. But I will do what I can in the time before I need to go cook for potluck. Fun times. Spring. Thoughts and hearts tourn to some kind of scandalous romantic entanglement, but not TOO scandalous.

RantWoman achieved somewhere around 5 hours of sleep counting falling asleep in the computer lab, going home and not immediately to bed and going back to bed for an hour after breakfast. Part of problem was not enough exercise over the day. Too few walk segments and too short. Just going across the street barely counts. The Chechen bombers book was subject to talking book reader vagaries. Plug it in this morning and see waht happens tonight. Or just blame the cat somehow. In other reading front news, RantWoman charged up her secondhand iPad and also her Kindle and has large print books from the library as well. But RantWoman is still going to grumble about reading. RantWoman usually attempts to do the daily sleep post basically eyes free with only the screen reader. That is RantWoman practices some simple tasks and avoids messing with some things that are harder. But today RantWoman's nerves are jangled enough just to turn on the screen magnification as well as the screen rea...

RantWoman is pretty sure she achieved almost SIX hours of sleep if one counts about 1.5 in chair, 3.5 in bed the first time and another merciful hour after breakfast. Great clarity from the last hour but it kind of dissipated in the running to and fro and other meetings. Pizza after last night's meeting helps. Love that cheese and gluten. Also good walk segments At least it was SUNNY today and there are green and almost blooming things. But not enough walk segments. Sigh. One meeting was Awesome and should be watched on the Seattle Channel. Conference call got some stuff done. As for the axe-throwing, there is a bar on Capital Hill that offers axe-throwing and alcohol. Hysterical phone conversation about firearms and adding a blind people flash mob to the axe-throwing. Interestingly the conversation wandered into nuances of SC politics factoring in the Great War of Northern Aggression, Reconstruction and other stuff RantWoman has had hardly any call ever previously to thi...

Somewhere around 5 hours of sleep but some of it in chair. Definitely would have been good to go back to bed but instead Twitter and like an hour on the phone iwth my sister. Hard to disengage. Hard to get her attention aand interrupt opportunity for data gathering on my part. Both brother and mom issues though. Adulting is a drag sometimes Now its almost 4. I have been to two meetings and owe twoemails one direction and 1 or two another direction. Read up on ... suggested by therapist. Caution may make some things you are dealing with worse. Oh good, no longer have to worry about interactions iwth one eye drop because i am officially allergic and off guess I should remmber to mention the allergic part. Also had to untangle headphones from the computer screen. Blame gravity because i cannot see anyone doing the tangling on purpose.

Somewhere over 4 hours. After fabulous night before last, I had ENERGY and teh  bedbugs wanted me to take dictation and sleep happened after 2:30 and until 8. Maybe that is over 5 hours but definitely not 6. The bombers book: I listened to the epilogue and now of course I want to read the middle New mail order clothing. It is much easier to be a nice human being if one's underwar works as needed. Ditto for pants and especially the luxury of pants that are too long. But I still think I need a spangly madonaa style hiv is bra over my coat to deal with all the people who keep misgendering me. Femal thank you very much, fine with it but also gender non-confomring. So smoke it. PS. Accessibility snafu of the day. Just started using the online hours entry utility. Screen reader does not read contents of several fields I need to care about. Mleah. PPS. And for extra grins my first spell of trying to do stuff, screen enlargement program decided I needed many red boxes and many m...

Somewhere past SIX HOURS. This counts about 2  hours sleeping in a chair after deciding that nothing textual was happening at 11:30, going home, but only making it into bed about 1:30 and waking up about 6 Somewhere in there is the talking book reader which I either I forgot to set the sleep button or the cat walked on. Nothing like falling asleep while the kids . bombers to be are still more or less normal immigrant teenagers / young adults and waking up to arrest scenes. But I'll take the sleep total for one thing because of waking up with energy to make porridge AND get the trash and compost wrangled. Okay so cleanup took... Phone also seems to have recovered from its no screen at all and it's weird green flashes to regular black background.

Made it to 5.5 hours in two stints. Wound up eating as much breakfast as I wanted when I got up to feed cat. But was able to go back to bed for another hour plus. Woke up once maybe when the book reader stopped. Rewound and tried to listen to some more but will of course have to rewind again. It is nice to have classical music in the room but not in my eadphones when I am working. SOmehow the sound works for my whole body not just my ears. Nerves jangled from --being face of advocacy committee and thinking about different parents of blind kids issues --thoughts of presidential election --What I might blurt out if I thought too long about the Fleabag episode about Quaker Meeting REALLY need more regular exercise so I have energy for basics like taking trash out. PS Random note of blessing for the day: new clothes include leggings that are a bit TOO LONG. Such a good and rare problem to have. Other than that, I realized it has been awhile since I have joked about ...
