Elfi, known bug enjoyer @elfi@pixie.town

It's frustrating that I can't turn off thinking, and often it's constantly self-checking and rechecking and second-guessing.

One prime example where this is a problem is when my conscious thoughts start coming unglued as I transition to sleep. My self-checks catch it, and often it acknowledges it as nominal, or in appropriate cases not nominal and jolts me awake. What sucks is that it too is affected by my transition to sleep, so sometimes it not only fails to recognize I'm trying to sleep, it does so with a large dose of panic because it fails to recognize *why* my thoughts are coming unglued.

My kingdom for a proper ACPI-defined set of sleep states or a brain kernel patch

Can't sleep, but I'm too tired to brain

ah, to lay beneath the wing of a great big fluffy moth

Suddenly tempted to order more Raspberry Pi Zero Ws...

the punchline to this is that the only cure is the very thing you cannot do

Got out of full-blown crisis mode thanks to Alana's help, but I need to have some uncomfortable conversations and I'm not looking forward to it

signs that you need coffee:
* you forget to turn on the coffee maker
* you forget to grind the beans and get the thought of coffee
* you forget to put the grounds in the coffee maker and get a nice hot cup of water
* you forget to close the coffee maker and get a nice faceful of hot water
* you forget to add milk, cream, and/or sugar
* you forget to take your coffee with you
