spare knees?

anyone have any spare knees they'd like to give me? these ones arent very happy with me at the moment for some reason. i needed 2 applications of voltaren, a lot of stretching, and a scream into a pillow last night to get to a point where i was able to sleep, and its looking like heading that way again.




sometimes i wonder if my knees are wacky because of ballet, or if doing ballet simply made me aware of the problem sooner.







on an unrelated note, tonight i am FAT. the food at outback is simply too yummy. and i didnt even have room for dessert.

now i remember why i hate my birthday so much. people keep taking me out to dinner and i eat too much and ALL THE DIETING IS FOR NOUGHT. NOUGHT I TELL YOU!

but it tastes so good......

*sigh*

next week we return to our scheduled homecooked food. and hopefully lose any poundage that has attached itself to me this week.

some days im glad hubby has been blinded by love.



and now im babbling. bedtime. goodnight interweb. sweet dreams.

so so tired

for some reason, my son decided to wake up at least 6 times last night. hubby and i watched a movie after the critter was in bed (much MUCH later than usual.. the whole day gets messed up time-wise when people come over), and lights were out by 11pm. im not sure of the exact time, but i know it was before 11.

by 12, i had already got up to my son. by 3am, id been up 3 times. when he woke up at around 7 this morning yelling for no aparant reason, i had already been up to him 6 times. possibly more. im not very good at waking up during the night, adn its entirely possible i missed some.

in theory, i had 8 hour of bed-time last night. but i didnt ahve 8 hours of sleep. it took 15-30 min to get back to sleep after each re-settling. my guess would be about 6 hours. 6 hours of frequently interrupted sleep. honestly i would rather have 4 hours straight, than 6 hours interrupted. its just not refreshing. especially since i seem to need a lot of sleep.

some people need more than others. im one who needs more. 8-10 is good. less and im a zombie. i think today im going to end up being very short with my son. hes tired and cranky, IM tired and cranky, and its cold. so so cold. and as well as needing a lot of sleep, i dont function well in the cold. luckily my husband is a giant hot water bottle :)

*sigh*

and i had planned on making cookies today. well, theres enough for one more luch for hubby, i'll make them tomorrow when im less likely to burn them to a cinder, or forget an essesntial ingredient. like flour. those didnt turn out very well.
