No sleep and other things.

I had terrible sleep last night and I knew it was going to happen as soon as I walked into my building last night. I knew it was going to be bad, my back seized up for just a few seconds, but it changed the way my muscles were set up. They became all tense and tight but only in a way that I could feel when I laid down to get to sleep. It was so painful and uncomfortable that I spent the night close to tears for just trying to relax and get to sleep. I downed half a bottle of Advil and a box of chamomile tea to ease myself, didn't work so well. I zoned in and out of sleepiness and then shot out of bed when I randomly remember something from earlier in the day. That little it of excitement threw me off for a while. I did get to sleep eventually, sometime between 1am and 2am. Miserable cold and with my lady "moment" I had no chance against the insomnia. I just wish I had that bunny last night, for some weird reason it really made me feel better.

I'm getting new sheets this weekend. I'm very excited about that. I'm trying to get my room together and more unified like I would like it and I need to new sheets. I have a pair that match my rose comforter, but my new comforter has no sheets to match and I need new sheets anyways. I'm going to get some pillowcases to match too. After I wash my comforters and put on the new sheets I may even feel better about my cold. And if Yonni comes over in the next month he has to wear a shirt if he sits on my bed because I don't want any bear hair on my bed, I want really clean sheets for at least a month. By the end of June I'm hoping to have matching shams, new curtains, and the rest of my bed put together.

For the past week I have been streaming cancelled shows on Netflix. It's been great. I started with Party Down, a show about out of work actors who pay their bills by waiting for a catering company in the LA area. It's an assortment of characters from the aging actress (Jane Lynch) to the new in town guy and the hit his peak too early man (Adam Scott). It totally reminded me of my childhood from the assortment of people Lance had working for us to the wacky and insane people we catered for. Rich people are so cracked out. Don't give up after the first episode. Party Down is like The Office you have to watch a bunch all in a row and then it's really funny. I've also been watching Michael and Michael Have Issues starring Michael Ian Black and Michael Showalter. I'm a big fan of their earlier work in The State but this show seems a little forced, no wonder Comedy Central didn't renew it for a second season. It's a show about producing a show with sketches thrown into the mix. It had a weird flow to it.
