I go through phases in my life where I'll be able to sleep just fine, no problems falling asleep, no problems staying asleep.  And then I go through phases where I would love to be asleep but for the life of me I can't fall asleep or I sleep really restlessly.  Last week was a sleep really great phase, but this week seems to be the other one.  The bad one.

Unfortunately there is nothing good on TV at this hour.  Thank goodness for Netflix though.  I've been watching "Tangled" and filling out job applications.  I've found about seven different jobs to apply for.  I've applied for every job I have found available for the last few months, ranging from jobs I know I am for sure qualified to do, to jobs that I don't necessarily want but think maybe it would be a good opportunity for the Lord to teach me something new.  So far the process has been highly unsuccessful.  I'm hoping one of the seven that I just applied for will have mercy on me.

The better news is I start my first class towards a master's degree tomorrow!  I'm taking "foundations of counseling and psychology."  I'm nervous but excited.  I'm sure it will be fine.  I've always found it to be a bit nerve-racking at the beginning of the semester not knowing what the class or the teacher will be like.  A syllabus will really help I think.  Also, buying my books will help, or even knowing which books I need.

Maybe I should try sleeping again.  Writing what I'm thinking always helps clear my head and gives me hope that maybe I'll actually fall asleep.
