Week 35: 24 hours and a lot of sleep later…

34 weeks, 3 days.

I remember in college, when I realized that I could stay up for a couple of days and like, wouldn’t die.

Then I remember grad school, where I realized that I just couldn’t do that anymore, and would in fact hallucinate in class if I did, but unfortunately, I often had so much work I couldn’t avoid it. That sucked.

And now that I’m pregnant and in my mid-30′s, I’ve realized I can’t stay up all day without a nap without going incredibly loopy. It makes me realize that I totally missed the boat in kindergarten by lying there awake and smacking my lips because it made a cool noise and I was bored. Think of all the nice midday sleep I could have gotten!

So anyway, I was kind of a mess yesterday. It’s much better now. The problem is, sleeping all afternoon meant that I didn’t get much done yesterday, and that basically sucks. Because I still have so much to do.

Now… to decide whether or not I’m going to go carve our huge pumpkin (we didn’t have time to do it last night, so I’ll have to go it alone), or to dress up Small Monster as something for Halloween (the popular outfit seems to be a Jack-O’-Lantern ), or, I don’t know, clean…
