Tired. So tired.

Uggg. I haven't slept well in weeks, and as a result I'm kind of wandering through a fog. I think the Wellbutrin I'm on to quit smoking is part of the problem, but it may be more than that. I have an appointment with my sleep doc in a few weeks. Let's hope it works out.

Sunday night I slept for about 5 hours.

Monday night I slept for about 4 hours.

Tuesday night I went to the Tabernacle to see Tom Waits. Now that was a kickass show. I got home, took my sleeping pill... and was awake until 6am.

I'm really hoping this gets worked out if not, I'm going to be borderline retarded in a week or so.

Yeah, the booze thing is really my problem...my smoking patterns are weird, when I'm not drinking, I can take or leave cigarettes. When I'm drunk, I chain smoke. So I can go a week without one without even really trying, if I'm not drinking that much, but as soon as I go on a bender, I crave nicotine. I don't know if I'll ever be able to quit unless I quit drinking, and I don't want to quit drinking. Oh well.

We've been watching Mike try every chemical combination under the sun to quit smoking for years now, with very little success. Hopefully it'll stick this time, but it sounds like the side effects from the wellbutrin might be bad enough that it's not worth it...I have my doubts about how much it actually helps. If you really want to quit, you can quit without it. I certainly do wish him luck this time.

Yeah... hate to say it, but sleeplessness is rarely associated with increased discipline :)
