The bane of this pregnancy is not sick. The bane of this pregnancy is Monstrous Sleepy. It matters not one single bit what I do or don't have for lunch. or how monumentally boring my afternoon projects are or are not. Sometime between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. the train pulls into Monstrous Sleepy, and it's a hell of a trick to keep from just slumping over unconscious on my keyboard for the remainder of the afternoon.
Caffeinated tea helps, but not enough. Of course, I am not so much meant to be having caffeine. Although I fail to see how something that fails to make me even marginally more awake could have the slightest effect on the fetus.
In fact, the only reason I am not asleep right now is because I am being kept awake by the need to pee. Again. Damn the first trimester. It always slips by in a sleepy haze of peeing and nausea. I guess that's why I forgot. I was too sick and too sleepy to notice.
The most beautiful sight in the world is the insides of my eyelids. Sleepy. Urmhrn.
