I decided exhaustion is something I have never truly experienced until being a mom.  Even when I was working on my final semester at school and I would stay at the video editing lab until 3 in the morning and then go to work all day only to go back to the lab at night.....

Last night Conrad had a complete emotional crisis.  He has had late night meltdowns before, but nothing like last night.  I am certain is was because Michael picked him up out of his swing to to try to put him in his bed when he was sound asleep.  It was like he was stuck in a nightmare.   with Freddy Krueger.   It was horrible to hear him like that...The whole situation was just intense, out of control, and never-ending.   I hate when there is not a damn thing I can do for him.  It just gets worse and worse.

Ohhhh man.  I've only been here for 3 hours.  It is so hard to stay awake this morning at work.  Even with a pot of coffee and a movie called "Georgy Girl" on Turner Classic Movies. I always loved The Seekers song "Georgy Girl" when I was little...I did not know this was a movie!!!  Lovely. Actually it's slightly stupid other than the 1960's London theme.  I want chocolate.  I want sleep.
