Bethy Town

I’m currently doing post-doc work on getting in my own way, so I commiserate.

You just might be on to something about this whole sleep thing, let’s get some more chocolate, er, data.

The irony is not lost on me to be awake past midnight talking about not realising lack of sleep was probably causing huge disruptions to me 🙃

Might madlibs tomorrow and drink a calming drink before bed.

First they want you to drink enough water…then they want you to sleep enough 🥸 brains are so demanding !
 
Let’s save the irony for the well rested. Tonight, we drink calming drinks! Tomorrow, we madlib!
 
I just couldnt stand another drink of water, lol, and my eyes were getting heavy. Vacation isnt for early bedtime! Its for being debauched at odd hours!
I mean i was referencing the hour not the drink but 🤣🤣🤣🤣 if im eating dinner at 5, i skipped lunch like a crazy adhd person (like me) does
 
Kinda miss those days. But with the sun being full dark at 515 now, I like having an earlier dinner time. Makes the winter light feel less oppressive.
Tbh i think earlier dinner and snuggling in bed for the evening might actually help me go to sleep earlier. I was very anti TV in bed but i need to do something more drastic to help. Last time i was sleeping around 10pm not 4am was when i was taking a book or tablet to bed

If youre not reading before bed, you have to reexamine your life! I cant sleep without it, even if Im drunk, still need a few pages.

Was it a sleeping tablet?

Drunk reading much be like adhd reading. Or just one of my quirks. If im looking at a paragraph, before i focus, i take in the whole paragraph so ill end up reading a sentence or a word where the letters/words have come from different lines

Oh for sure, but thats enough for my brain, lol. Besides, new books are a rarity, I can usually put the pieces together.
 
I buy books more than i read them. Partner says i tricked him by saying i was a bookworm 😂 i was…then i became a perpetual student and read research papers 🤢
The perils of niche interests, lol. I only buy new installments in things Im obsessed with.

oh okay. Yeah im just a book slut. Some discernment but more slutti now i want to read outside the YA and crime fiction/thriller genre

And also anything far away from my job is good.

Recent finished reads are issac and the egg. Unusual but a great depiction of depression.

The undiscovered deaths of grace mcgill. Cant share much as my favourite thing was being surprised. But loved it
 
It was the next installment of the Horus Heresy for me, and apart from that, a lot of my favorite authors are either really slow to put out work or its not their main gig anymore.
 
I have so many questions but youll be interesting and then ill ask more stuff. So ill rain check the chat and go to bed ☺️ thanks for keeping me company x
