The calm after the manic storm

Well, I had a really crazy run of days where I didn't get much sleep and was on a high.  The is cool until it ends.  Then I end up where I am now.  I am tired despite sleep eleven hours.  I am introverted.  I am really just going through the motions.  The good thing is that after a couple days of rest I am back on an even keel.  This is much better than the month long depression that could and usually would set in.  Right now I am at work listening to a co-worker snore while he sleeps.  I cannot bring myself to sleep at work so I count the minutes down until 6AM hits.  Then I get to drive down the old turnpike and try to go right to bed as I have an appointment at 3PM with the old counselor.  Even though I will not get much sleep, it will be a deep sleep.  That is the hidden bonus of the post manic days.  I sleep every free moment away and get rested.  This week has a bonus too.  It is finals week.  I get a week and a half off after this week is done.  That will be sweet.  Maybe I can get to that pile of shame...
