think~think~thinking

This morning I couldn't go back to sleep after Nate left for work. I feel like my mind is on overdrive- thinking way too much about things I have no {or mostly no} control over. I think I'm really good at doing that when I can't fall asleep. Here's just a few things I was thinking... perhaps you'll find them amusing:

• trying to think of more ways to help my hair grow faster (I'm already brushing it a lot, massaging my scalp, taking certain vitamins... but really what else can you do but wait?)
• thinking about how I like to post my poems on here but I haven't actually written anything new for a long time
• birthdays, thanksgiving, christmas
• family & how much my little nieces and nephew have grown
• what to wear & how to style my hair today
• about Facebook & if I should delete my account (I think I spend too much time on there sometimes... I used to check it maybe[?] once a week & now I feel weird if I go a whole day without checking it- I don't like feeling that addiction/dependancy or whatever you wanna call it)
• about how I go thru phases of not caring what people think about me and then all of a sudden I can be super self-conscious 
• how I need to figure out a better work out schedule otherwise it's not going to become a habit like it should
• thinking of how much I love to wear nate's sweats, socks, & baggy long sleeve shirts to bed
• about how much I hate the cold & winter time- holidays & birthdays do help quite a bit but i already miss the sun & it's warmth so much :(
• crafts & projects I'm working on
• plans: weekend plans, after work plans, lunch plans, birthday plans, holiday plans, future plans, vacation plans.... {Did I get all the right days off at work? Is Nate taking the fast bus to his parents' house that day? What time do we need to be there?} Ya know & all that jazz that comes with any types of plans
• how I am in desperate need of a manicure & pedicure
• how I wish I had more time to paint
• wish I had more time in general (when you're grown up time just seems to speed up)
• how badly I need to find a good chiropractor in the area
• that movie Alice in Wonderland ~we watched it for the first time the other night- I liked it~ ya know that part where she says, "Some days I think 6 impossible things before breakfast..."? ha ha that's what I was thinking about this morning
• how I need to catch up in my one journal (I'm at the part where me & Nate have started dating & I've told him I love him but we're only about 2 months into it... so I'm like almost 3.5 years behind :( & so much good stuff has happened since then!)
• how bad of a day yesterday was & now it's thursday- my favorite day of the week :)
• hoping I feel better today but acknowledging that my sore throat is still present 
• about things I need to work on/be better at doing

I'm probably forgetting a few things but still- that's quite a bit to think about between 5:30am & now (it's 7:30am- time to get ready for work- already know what i'm gonna wear ha ha). I think I think more in the early morning than at any other time of the day -sometimes the middle of the night too- hate it when that happens... as much fun as it is to think & rethink the things you've already thought about I'd really rather just sleep & not worry so much, HOWEVER... my mind doesn't always work that way :)
