Fingers crossed for the recovery of Jose Ramos-Horta, President of East Timor, who's in a serious condition in Darwin after an assassination attempt. And hope for calm in East Timor.

Roy Scheider died :(

I had no idea he was 75. Had a crush on him in seaQuest. And respected how he stood up and said he hated the direction they took the show after first season and fought for the scientific integrity.

Tafe back tomorrow. Said to mum, "I don't want to go to school tomorrow". So far behind on the MYOB (computer) section of the course. Much happier doing the manual bookkeeping.

So bloody tired. Only been back at work a month and I just haven't been able to settle into a rhythm. Multiple bouts of insomnia, which just isn't fair when one has chronic tiredness. Last Thursday night I pretty much didn't sleep at all. Had to go to work Friday, zombie-like. Last night kept waking up. Had a digesic at 4am, finally went to sleep for a solid 3 hours after 5am (and had weird Pretender dreams with Miss Parker living at my house and worried that she hadn't used her library card in two days, and Daddy Parker walking down the road to catch the bus). Worked today. Would be easier if the insomnia was on non-work nights.

It might be when I haven't had enough rest over a couple of days. Didn't get to rest Tuesday (counselling plus the infuriating bra/wedding present shopping trip) or Thursday (Lara came). Didn't get to rest yesterday arvo due to having to edit brother's job application. Just an hour or two sitting down in the arvo watching tv every second day plus weekends (in addition to the sleeping in and not having to go to work of course) seems to keep me ticking over.

Though I don't quite understand why that lack of rest then means not being able to fall asleep...is my body just too overtired?
