The week is off to an odd start. Well, I’m feeling off and odd, at any rate. As my sleep deprivation worsens my workload (at the office, and at home) seems to increase exponentially. Likewise the more work that piles up the more I find myself distracted by pretty shiny things. And my judgment has been seriously impaired by this lack of sleep combined with additional stress. Was so exhausted when we got home last night that I allowed the little man to make his own dinner plans. His choice…hummus and pita, which is all right…but accompanied by a bowl of peanut butter cap’n'crunch. And don’t ask me how *that* found its way into my house. I have no reasonable explanation to offer. Perhaps alien invaders have tampered with my brain.
