That's it. It started. The sleeplessness. I've only been unemployed a few weeks and it just started to kick-in. I sprang awake at 4 this morning. Went downstairs and watched TV until Carol got up to take her morning walk. Went back to bed and was awakened at 8 by the thumping of a bass line coming from the TV downstairs that Carol had left on with the volume up a bit too high. My mind is starting to get to me. The stress is starting to get to me. The fear is starting to get to me.
It's going to be a fun ride...
