Tiredness is driving me insane...is that possible?

Sleep is all I want. That's it. That's all I need to make me happy these days. But can I have it? Nope.

I would go to sleep at night and just dream repeat my days, like I had never actually left work. I would wake up with bags down to my nose! And no hot water most mornings just made me cry before work, blah! What a way to start the day!

The lack of quality sleep finally caught up to me and I got really sick, so I ended up at the Vista Clinic in Beijing on Friday morning. But, a funny thing happened on the way there...

Since going to the clinic wasn't me doing work, I had to make a pitstop at the O'mart for office supplies to cover my absence from school. I know, I know...I was sick, but oh well. Anyway, I get to the O'mart and the doors are open, but no power. Hmmm. A woman meets me with a flashlight, notices that I have their catalogue in my hands and drags me in. In the dark. So, we're in there and two more people meet up with us, one with another flashlight and a clipboard, and the other with a cart. The three of them dragged me all over the O'mart in pitch black to do my office shopping. lol! Business continues in China no matter what!

After re-adjusting to the bright outside world, I hopped back in Driver LI's taxi and headed to the clinic. The doctor there thinks that I have too much anxiety from work, so she gave me anti-anxiety stuff and sleep medication. Now I'll be so doped up I won't dream, great :) And she wants me to reduce my workload. But that's practically impossible. My workload will lighten when I leave China, lol!

Last night, I took the medication the doctor gave me...8pm and I was out, lol...and I didn't wake up until 8am. Felt nice to sleep and feel nothing. But then I was off to IKEA for Christmas shopping for the office...rest is really a luxury I can't afford.
