Night Owl - Yes, I am

It is now 10:30 pm and I'm waiting on my dinner to finish simmering. Good news is I'm making my first lentil soup. No, it's not rocket science, but for some reason this is my first fore into soup.

I am embarrassed to say, but I could have eaten at least 1 or 2 hours ago. But, no, I was totally taken in by a project at work -- our new Intranet -- trying to work out some technical quirks and try out some new gadgets. Ever have a certain picture in your head of what something should look like or taste like? Well, in my case, I most certainly do and this perfectionism is driving me crazy these days.

Well, it wasn't just my obsession with figuring some stuff out on Sharepoint... I also got a call from my mom just as I was about to turn my computer off and head to the gym. It was sweet to hear her voice and worth the delay.

I have another sneaky suspicion as to my burst of night energy...Could it be Sudafed and Claritin? To help me breathe at night, I am now taking the two allergy meds every day. This is a switch from Zyrtec which knocked me out and had me feeling loopy more often than not.

I'm definitely not complaining about being energetic after a long period of serious lethargy, but I sure wish I could simply get up early instead of staying up so darn late. It is now 10:45 pm and I am just turning to my Russian homework. That will for sure take me at least an hour. C'est ma vie!
