Every once in a while, my body decides it doesn't need sleep. My body is sadly misinformed.

Sometimes my body promises me it won't give me a migraine and upset stomach this time if I just have a tiny bit of chocolate.

My sympathies: those who natter on about how we should listen to our bodies sometimes forget that we need to take what our bodies say with a significant grain of salt. Perhaps, indeed, a few clumped grains.

My body tells me that exact same lie! But, once I am asleep -- I will lie and tell other people that I'm awake.

When mine does that, it's at the mercy of my hormones -- and it has been well-proven that my hormones are utterly unreliable guides of what my body should do.

What? You're in withdrawal from phenobarb, too? I'm starting back tonight and then decreasing more gradually.

Whatever it was, it made my legs ache too, and I was as jumpy as someone who chugged a couple of pots of coffee. Oh, and the unconscious leg tapping frequency and amplitude when way up. Seems to be dying off, though.
