Sleeping tablets

Is this how people are supposed to feel when they wake up? My eyes are bright, my brain is switch to the 'on' position, no headache, no body aches! I feel ready to get out of bed!

Fair enough 9.42am is a little late to  do so - but it's the feeling I'm interested in. Last night I was reeling from tiredness but wanted to be sure it didn't escalate so I took a sleeping tablet. After an hour (midnight) I wasnt feeling it so I took another BOOM lights out.

Now it's a not a sedative its an hypnotic  drug and I have no clue how it works but I am aware that you have to treat it carefully and it can result in memory loss.

Normally when I wake up I have flashes of Dan coming to bed, waking up, hearing his alarm, or dreams at least. This morning I have nothing. I was either unconscious until a few minutes ago or I slept normally and have no nemory of any interupting events. Bizarre. But I do feel good.

Except for the fact that I slept through three alarms and missed my date with my friend. That's a downside.

Update 12pm. I am calm and relaxed to the point of horizontal. But I have no mojo. I did manage to shower and dress but I feel glued to the sofa. My head wants to hit the pillows. It's not sleepiness - I don't feel it in my eyes. It's more like feeling stoned ans just wanting to sink into soft warm blackness. Sooo tempting.

No!!! No no no no no! I am going to put the tv on loud. Do the washing up and eat something.  Hah! Screw you lethargy. I fight you one step at a time!!
