I'm continuing not to title when I don't have anything to say...

Easy night. The thunderstorm missed us but got Lawrence. As I was going to work at the hospital last night (after working at MedAssist) KANU issued a thunderstorm warning, then suddenly went off the air. I assumed that they got struck by lightning, since they were up again this morning when I got off.

I love thunderstorms; it's been one of my weaknesses for a long time. When I was about eight or nine in Oklahoma, a storm hit after I had gone to sleep and just scared the shit out of me. I was terrified of storms until we moved to Albuquerque, where there were no storms. Then I remember reading a book on weather and how storms formed. It was fascinating to me then and it remains so. Anyway, that cured my fear, even after moving back to Oklahoma, and I've loved storms of all kinds since then. I think that maybe I just hate boring, non-stormy weather. You know how I hate being bored by anything...

Really tired, been awake too long. I have a cure for that, I hope... if anyone has any advice for insomniacs, please let me know... I mean serious advice. I'd appreciate it!

On the other hand, I don't know if I can stand a change in my lifestyle... and I've also noticed that I use those three periods... a lot. I never thought about that before, I wonder what it means. Actually, I wonder what I think they signify... a kind of a trailing off of a thought, something for you (the reader) to fill in, or maybe I don't want to or can't really articulate what I really want to say. This is really all too confusing. I need to go to sleep and think about it...

WOW!I just figgered it out!

I was re-reading my late May-early June entries for mistakes, and came upon the "Once a drunk..." one. I realized that my sleeping "problem" lately was chemically-induced. Prozac is the culprit! I had entirely forgotten this early-phase side effect, and I am vastly relieved. I am also amazed at how stupid I have been not to have known this earlier... Now that I realize that relief is in fact to arrive shortly, I will sleep better! (I know it's bad form to point out your own cleverness, but I don't want you to miss the fact that the last phrase is absolutely hilarious... and I really need some sleep!)
