Insomnia...

So, Ryker started working graveyard shift last Tuesday. That sucks - but it's better than him working out of town which is what most of the guys are having to do right now. The only problem...I feel like I'm working graveyard as well. Once the kids go to bed...it's deathly quiet in the house and I'm suddenly wide awake. I stay up until I think I'm getting tired and then I try to go to sleep. No luck. It's just don't sleep well when he isn't at home. I'm hoping at some point I'll get so exhausted that I'll just finally sleep well.
I've been wanting to work outside because there is certainly plenty of things for me to do, but for the last week the weather has been so crappy I haven't been able to do anything. So, lo and behold, I finally broke down and got a facebook account. I have to say it's a bit like being a crack addict (not sure what that's like really...but I'm thinking this must be close). It's pretty cool. I rediscovered a lot of old friends and I like that fact that I don't have to accept any of the random creepy people who happen to ask to be your friend.
Do I have a point here?...not really, I'm just tired and if I take a nap, I'll never sleep. The one nice outcome out of all of this is that I've been able to talk to Erica more. I need someone to talk to at night so we both get on facebook and talk on the phone and chat at the same time - it's totally stupid but it makes the time until I try to go to bed go by faster.
