Nothing like the cumulative effect of 3+ months sleep deprivation to turn one into a bit of a lunatic. It alternately takes the form of: crying, an inability to string thoughts together (as if this doesn't make me paranoid given my possible genetic inheritance), general crankiness (i know logically that i love my wonderful husband, so why is it that i am snarling at him every 5 minutes?), falling asleep in odd places (under violet's bed - ok, so it is several feet off the ground but still...*in* violet's bed ("yes, honey, mommy's watching you do those puzzles at 5:30 in the morning")), falling asleep mid-conversation, inability to fall asleep at prescribed times due to exhaustion/irrational anxiety (frustrating!), and general giddiness (although this sometimes manifests at laughing loudly at *really* dumb tv shows, but i can tolerate it if it's a giggle fit at 3 a.m.). sigh.
