Just a little tip

All right kids, watching the news tonight, they made mention that Viagra has possibly made some men go blind! So I guess when mom used to say, "don't do that, you'll go blind," it has actually come true. Seriously, they are currently researching these claims and do NOT plan to take it off the market at this time. The FDA is looking into it and may put a black box warning on the medication.

So, it's now the golden hour of 3:30 am. Sigh. What's ironic about this is that the allergy medication I take at night is supposed to knock me out. Ha. My internal bizarro clock obviously has the stronger will! I've accepted the fact that I am at times an insomniac for no particular reason (the first step is admittance) and I'm okay with that (second step, acceptance). But at times, I wish I was like my husband who can fall asleep anytime, anyplace, for as long as he needs. If he only has 15 min., he can actually fall asleep and sleep only for 15 min. Amazing to me. He's currently enjoying the sleep of the very, very lucky right now and I'm trying really hard to not be jealous, lol.

I had a doctor's appt today and my blood pressure was 109/52. I asked if this was too low because it sounds way too low, but they told me to be happy and the last cholesterol check I had was at 109, so hmmm. I told Paul he won't have to worry about me on that score. I think it's the mounds of salt I eat. Or maybe it's the greasy food. Maybe all the research out there is completely wrong and they're conspiring with drug companies to get people on meds for high blood pressure when all they have to do is salt the hell out of everything they eat. Oh man, that's a great conspiracy theory. If none of you ever hear from me again, you know I'm right!

Well, off to find that elusive Sandman!

Love, B
