Insomnia

So every night I get in the bed aroun 10pm, and by 12:45 AM I'M STILL AWAKE!!!! I don't know what it is. Maybe too much on my mind, maybe it was the coffee flavored frozen yogurt I had before laying down, I can't call it.

Well, since I'm semi-up, I guess I can catch you up.

So, most of this past weekend was spent staring at the computer per usual. But this time I was working on a fellowship application. I applied to the CSWE Minority fellowship program last year this time, I'm not sure if you remember, I was an alternate, so I decided to try my hand at it again. I think the hard part for me with writing these things is not really having my research topic solidified. I know my special interest area, but it's hard to work that general area into a specific fellowship focus when your very idea lacks specificity. But I toiled and I have something that I'm going to print out tomorrow, send, and pray for the best, as usual.

Oher than that I haven't really done too much else. I have these two grants that I'm assisting on which are pretty cool. One involves engaging men of faith around domestic violence (maybe I've mentioned it before) and a newer one actually gets me to work with my faves: high school teenagers. It's a blessing to have this opportunity because potentially I'll have data to work with to write my dissertation; in case you didn't know, data is a hot commodity around these parts. So I definitely need to give a shout out to God for these opportunities, because everyone is not so lucky. I recognize my blessings.

I just typed a whole next paragraph and lost it, so maybe that's my cue. I need to be up in five and a half hours for class, so I'm going to try one mo'gain at this nite nite thing. Maybe tomorrow I'll pick back up where my technical malfunction cut me off.

Till then, nite all.
