Past Tired

I've reached that state. The state where your mind is asleep but still functioning. Your eyes are half-closed and you're fighting to keep them open enough to finish posting your thoughts. I have been depriving myself of sleep. Trying to squeeze as much living into my life as I can. Long hours of work lead to long hours of play and then short hours of sleep.

I need a vacation. A vacation from more than one thing. Mostly, I need a vacation from myself. From this self that chooses to be overtired, overemotional because he won't just collapse into bed. I am past tired and into exhaustion. So much so that this post is slipping away from me. So I go to sleep and, hopefully, dream.

Sleep *is* a vacation and I try to vacation as much as possible! It makes non-vacation time so much more enjoyable. It's not about how-much you can cram in during one lifetime, but how much you enjoy or can make a difference in what little time there is during our short lifecycles. oh yeah...time to get back to work...
