Guess forgot her sleeping pills?

I'm staying at my aunt's apartment tonight, and forgot my sleeping pills (just melatonin based- nothing fancy) at home. I don't usually rely on them, but for some reason lately I've had major issues on falling asleep when I want to. I can never figure out when/why I have trouble sleeping; most people just blame it on my love for coffee and diet coke. However, I haven't had any caffeine of any sort in over 24 hours. I've been up since eight (which is about an hour or two later than usual, I admit) and worked out for a non-consecutive total of an hour and forty five minutes. I haven't eaten since after seven, and have only had water to drink today. This is really really odd. On days like this, when I just can't figure out why I'm not sleeping, really drive me crazy. Well, I guess I'm going to watch 30Rock until my eyes finally decide to dry out.

I really wish I was this kitten. I would love to be sleeping and fuzzy like that right now.

What should I have for dinner?

Day six of consecutive video workouts. The rehearsal dinner is tomorrow, then the wedding is Saturday. I really don't think I'll be fitting in the dress the way I had hoped. Well, perhaps I'll just be wearing my old rugby spandex underneath it, so I look sleeker.
The point of this is though, what the hell do I eat for dinner? I really feel that at some point I should go to a nutritionist to find out the things that are best for me to eat. For today though, I'm just going to grab something from down in the market. I really want a burrito from that one place by the butcher shop, but I've eaten burritos from there so often lately. It's definitely not healthy. They're SO good though!
Does anyone out there have any good nutritional tips that could benefit me in my long-term goals?

The week of preparing.

This weekend is my godfather's wedding, and I'm attending both the wedding and the rehearsal dinner. I'm sure there will be lots of pictures being taken, so I need to get ready. This week will be full of long distance running, Jillian workouts, and face masks. I have no idea what I will be wearing to the rehearsal dinner (what does one wear to a rehearsal dinner?) but my dress for the wedding is a beautiful dress by Adrianna Papell, and it sure is small. It hardly needs to be said that I really need to do some major sit-ups to make this look as good as it deserves.

It took me forever to find the exact dress online; apparently there were very few made in this raspberry color, most of the ones I found were just plain black. Anyway, if you're interested in this exact color dress, I found it here, otherwise there are very similar versions here and here.
Anyway, I have to get up very early tomorrow morning to go for a run (oh, did I mention I'm running a race in two weeks that I am so not prepared for??) so I think I may just leave it off here. Cheers to finding the perfect party dress!

Sleep issues.

So, lately, I've not been sleeping. It's currently 1.32 am, and I'm dying to sleep. On the upside, my dear old tried and true football team, the Packers, won their first game of the season! Great match against the Saints, fellas. I've been watching football for over a decade, and being from the capitol of the cheese state, the Packers are my sports holy grail. It was a great day when I finally got to see them win the Superbowl, and seeing their next league game go just as well, well. It was awesome. Simply peachy. Continuing on, I am still not confident in my ability to pass my test at school, so I'm just putting it off even more. However: anyone who wishes to study with me- PLEASE let me know!!
IIIIIIIIIIIIIII NEEEEEEEEEEEEEED A JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOB.
Ugh. Balls. I really need a job. Also some sleep. Perhaps this is why I can't learn my flashcards- I'm too sleep deprived? Probably not, I'm just not good at memorization.
Is anyone else as excited for Whitney Cummings' new sitcom? I love her, and she totally hasn't been in enough stuff... Until two weeks from now! I can't wait!

So many things on my mind, not enough energy to type it all out. I bet I'll spend another hour and a half trying to fall asleep. I think it's time to try those sleeping pills. Well, 'til next time.
