No Sleep

I have fallen behind on a lot of things.  I have fallen behind on sleep.  I don't have much energy.  But I have so much to do for tomorrow and the next day and the next.  It's been an entire month of this... I can't wait until summer, until next year.  I will probably be in a better place for things by the time when the fall semester rolls around.  But for now, it's just back to pure pain.  And using the last of my energy to force that pain out of my mind.  Sleep is a luxury.  Being well rested and being in a good headspace is a privilege.  I have been trying to be a lot of things for a lot of people, amid failure after failure this semester when things went downhill.  I'm writing this at 11 central time, but I feel the weight of no sleep on me.  I feel the crushing weight of this semester as I slowly forget what I'm even writing on this screen.
