These days profound thoughts have a way of making an appearance right about the time I'm just slipping out of consciousness. (As in, as I fall asleep! :|) And it is quite irritating. I obviously can't recall much about said thoughts, but for the profundity /:).
The other thing that has been substantially more irritating is that I keep waking up in the middle of the night (well, early evening in the real world, given my sleeping habits on-board). The worst thing is I'm usually way too muddled to notice anything but the minute hand. Even that feat is a continuous source of surprise to me. But then once I've brushed my teeth, and washed my face, and generally arrived at a marginally more wakeful state, I realise that it's a good 2 or 3 or even 5 hours too early for shift :-<.
And this is happening way too often this trip :(. Makes me wonder... Not a lot has been happening this trip so far. Which is good, in a way. I could use a quiet trip. Haven't had one of those in over a year and a half, come to think of it. Oh! Someone finally managed to get DVDs of Scrubs Season 7, so that's keeping me entertained off shift :).

Haven't you heard of the ancient Chinese proverb that translates to 'May you live in interesting times'?
