Side Effects of Insomnia

Jump to Comments

When you have severe problems sleeping every night, you end up with significantly more hours to do things each day. Here are the fortunate or unfortunate side effects of my insomnia:

  • I consistently make it to the gym, so I’m not wasting my money (12 lbs lost and counting, much stronger right knee and a silly sweet jump shot that is going to crush Evan in our 3-pt shooting contest)
  • I am buying too many things off the Interwebs (new ski jacket, new digital camera, Rock Band for Wii, new suit, new ties, new jeans), researching too many other “to-be” purchases (Macbook Pro, bike) and fascinating about other things (new car, e.g. hybrid vehicle, jetboat)
  • I got the bright idea that I could cook so I bought the book “Nobu Now” and I’ve been practicing
  • I am house hunting throughout DC and crunching numbers at home to see what I can realistically afford
  • I am thoroughly testing the new iPhone applications (GOOD: Pandora, Twitterrific, Midomi, Myspace, eBay, BAD: Facebook, AIM, STILL TESTING: Whrrl, STRANGE: PhoneSaber)
