I **gotta** start studying!

In theory, July 6th sounds very far away.  It is easy, and I am guilty of this today, and pretty much most days since school ended, to think “I’ll start studying in earnest…..tomorrow.”  Can’t lie, and this point, at 6 p.m. it is pretty pointless for me to commence today.  Nope.  This kid goes to bed between 8 and 9 pm, because she is that L-A-M-E.  But smart enough to know that any attempt at this point to study is counterproductive as hell, I will only end up having trouble sleeping later tonight.

I am what I am.  I have every reason to believe that I *will* wake up, without fail, by 4:30, irrespective of when I go to bed.  That is just how my body works these days (always subject to change).  For most of my young adult life I was a major night owl that could sleep later if need be.  Then  I fought with major bouts of insomnia where I only got a few hours a sleep a night… and feel grateful I got that much.  I’m glad that I’ve found a semblance of balance going to bed ridiculously early and managing to get 6ish hours of sleep, assuming my shoulder allows it.

So meh, I am going to enjoy NOT studying tonight, for the hopes of a good night’s sleep.  I have all day tomorrow to study – and dang it, I am going to try my best to do just that.
