44.

And looking pretty good, if I do say so myself, on just 2 hours of sleep + 2 hours of trying to get back to sleep, after staying late at the Sunday jam. I'm definitely going to crash this afternoon though. Probably be useless tomorrow, too. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I tell you, I've suffered from bouts of extreme fatigue since I was 14 (next month that'll be 30 fucking years of undiagnosed chronic disability that I'm now thinking might actually be atypical migraines… !?!) but I used to be able to sleep at night. Now even my good energy weeks end up tired from the insomnia.

And that's even before I start complaining about all these middle-aged injuries that show up without clear cause. If I'd messed up my knee when I fell on an icy sidewalk last night, I'd at least have someone to swear at. But no, I messed it up by, I don't know, standing funny on Saturday while breaking up the last packed-snow-turned-ice on my own walk? Probably because I was trying not to aggravate my messed up shoulder. Still don't know how I did that… 👵🏻
