I must be getting old....

....because now once I am worked up about something, I can't fall asleep. When I was younger, nothing would rattle my ground, I could be in pretty stressed out situation, but I would still not lose sleep over it. Now though, once something comes up and it stresses me out, I would either spend 2-3 hours at night trying to fall asleep but ending up thinking about whatever it is that is stressing me out (that being the best case scenario) or I just can't fall asleep altogether (being not that good of a scenario). Unfortunately, when I don't get enough sleep, the next day I always have a headache and I get very cranky, two things that I can't stand. Tonight will be one of those nights when I just can't seem to be able to fall asleep, it's 3:30 am right now and I am so worked up that as soon as I just put my head on my pillow I just can't lie still, I feel like I need to get up and do some push-ups or something, I can feel my heart beating and I have too many thoughts racing through my head. Now, the fact that it's 3:30 am probably does not help, I have been up for a while, and naturally physically, mentally and emotionally I am tired, so I really am not thinking straight any more....but why is it that I just can't lay down and go to sleep. I think it would be fascinating to see what my body is doing....hmm, I wish I was hooked up to some medical machine to see if my body is acting any different, because I sure do feel like I just can't sit still, let alone lay down and try to go to sleep. Oh, and I get hearburns everytime I get nervous, that is the weirdest part, why of all the things I would get heartburn, the only explanation is that my body is getting older and starting to act up... I wish I could just reboot it and that would fix the glitches.
Well, tomorrow will be interesting, seeing as I have to get up in about 5 hours and I have a full day tomorrow without dealing with a family feud, so add that on top of everything, and I am just going to be a toast by tomorrow evening. And my day is all booked with errands tomorrow, so I can't even take a nap...Oh, well, I guess I will have plenty of rest once I die, so I shouldn't complain that I am living :)
