i dunno if klonopin is habit forming although i do believe it is best to be careful. i haven't had any unpleasant side effects but that's just me.

i don't know about the bell's of st. mary but something is banging around in my head...i think it might be someone playing pinball with my brain. 8:13am and no sleep for me either. and i have class today so that's gonna suck. don't worry 'bout babbling, tis a side effect of insomnia. look at me, i do it all the time oh and being delusional is another side effect again, look at me

myself, YAY for getting sleep!!! i haven't tried a history or science textbook yet but they're my next option. i tried some instruction manuals but they just bored me...not to sleep though, go figure.

right now i'm just sitting and watching my sleeping cat on my printer waiting for the next time that she relaxes too much and slides off. it's so funny...but i think that's the insomnia talking again.

hope everyone has a good day...i will probably be completed retarded by the end of it since my functioning has already slowed down to an abysmal level.

"who needs sleep? yeah we're never gonna get it! who needs sleep? tell me what's that for.....?"

Thanks, I'll talk to my Doc about it or something similar. I managed with the help of a couple of benadryls to get a couple of hours sleep, but still nothing like the solid 8 hours I used to get back in the day . . .

My cat bubba, oh my goddess he was SO funny so much of the time I really, really miss him. He'd sleep at the edge of things all the time, top step of the stairs, edge of a table, whatnot. He'd always wakeup, yawn, stretch and roll over . . . The look on his face was just priceless that split second as he realized there was nothing beneath him. Kind of like cartoons only funnier!!! He was also drawn to and facinated by the DVD placer. He was also terrified of it, but had this compulsion to be near it. Right at eye level (his) he'd try and sneak up on it to sniff it or lick it (I really think he is a dog in a cat suit) and one of us would hit eject on the remote! Instant popcorn! He'd go straight up and back with his tail and the rest of his fur puffed up huge . . . and he'd never learn, like I say he was drawn to it! The first time he fell down the stairs he wouldn't go near the top step for weeks thinking it had pushed him, then after a while he somehow decided that falling down the stairs was fun and we'd here kitty paws thumping, thundering up the stairs, and then kitty body thumping down the stairs. Bubba was whacked!!! I think he could of used medication, I mean sure the stairs were a deep pile carpet with padding, but still how could that not hurt?

Frell, I'm still babbling, you can just call me Brooke (oh to have her looks and money!) if you like.

The bells of St. Mary's is a reference to one of my favorite movies "Under The Tuscan Sun"

Okay now that's scary, Social Security Administration just called to confirm my appointment tomorrow, nearly gave me a heart attack the phone ringing like that . . .

I was looking at the criteria for disability and it kind of hammered home how much trouble I'm in since I'll fly through the "qulification process" having more than the required number of "problems" to be considered mentally disabled. I guess it's more than time to stop trying to sell myself the idea that everything is going to magically get better on night while I'm sleeping . . .

Ah HA!!! You see, there's the problem, I don't sleep, so the magic cannot happen . . . Hum, someone want to club me with a bat or something?

So I think I need to go try a nap now, or at least calm down some from the phone ringing. Crap and I thought I was making progress today . . . Oh Godess I'm so very tired . . .

Hang in there and thanks.
