been having all sorts of bad dreams recently. needless to say have not been sleeping well.

this morning's: I parked in front of my parents' house, and when I came out, not only had I gotten a ticket, but Caleb had rigged my car up to a power line so I would get an electric shock if I tried to open the door. he thought this was a hilarious prank; I was not so amused.

there was more stuff but not anything that would make sense in daylight.

but now I have tea and oatmeal and two hours before I have to be anywhere.

I've become more patient with my moods where I fight myself every step of the way. (No, I don't want to take a shower now! But you have to, or you'll be late for work. No! Want to internet!!) I just let my inner toddler rage on, because I'll be more able to handle stuff tomorrow, or if not tomorrow, eventually. Now that I know it's possible to have a state of mind where I'm not constantly struggling, it's easier to handle the times when I am.
