too sleepy today

I am so unquestionably tired this afternoon. Heck, I was tired this morning. I did only get about 6 hours sleep, and I don't drink coffee, but this is ridiculous. If I sit back my eyes close and I start to hear things (like the narcolepsy symptom.) How do I beat this back?

I skipped my nap at lunchtime today because of a late start out, I didn't stick with the food plan for today. Sure, I ate the first half of my lunch at 10, but this cold weather made the idea of a dry salad very unpalatable. On my way to the grocery store for some salad dressing (I should just get some next time we go to the store -- it'll be cheaper at the one we usually go to) I opted to visit Panda Express to give them another shot. "It's rainy and cold today," I thought' "I should have something warm for lunch." Never mind that this would be easily 3x the amount I needed, 2 hours before I needed it, and would completely bypass my nap. I'm paying for it now. The food was yummy, and the service was delightful -- I noticed a bit late the a la carte option -- and I needed some more chicken in the diet today. But, ugh. I shouldn't have dropped the plan like that.

So hear I am, an hour and a half away from an hour long drive, drinking lots of water, getting up to walk in circles in the office, and trying to understand my tech research (the SSIS transformation I should use for "look up a value; if no match, that's good") , and blogging instead because this keeps the fuzziness away.

I will get better.
