Counting Sheep

I haven’t been sleeping well lately and decided to try counting sheep.  It didn’t go well.  I made it to ten before things turned weird.  Sheep eleven and twelve decided that normal fence jumping was no longer “cool.”  They started freestyle jumping – spins, turns, hoof-clicking, flips, etc.  Around nineteen and twenty, the sheep started wearing Olympic style outfits (very streamlined).  I found these little sheep quite fascinating and I actually became more awake than before I started!  I think this little guy is what started it all:

I still have three days of vacation I need to use up by the end of March (we can “only” carry over 262 hours).  I think I’ll take tomorrow off.  The weather is supposed to be decent during the day, so I can go for a flight.  I also want to get my taxes done.  I have some cleaning to do in the apartment too – try to contain your jealousy.  Oh, I need to get caught up on my emails and Facebook messages as well. 

Today’s symptoms:  Today wasn’t too bad, but I started to lose a fair bit of my energy just after lunch.  I can sleep in tomorrow, so hopefully that will help a bit.  I had some pretty frequent flu-like pains in my arms and hands too.
