I can't sleep. Which, you know, I can deal with a day of work after one night of sleeplessness... but this is the fourth night in a row of subpar sleep. To which my usual solution is calling in sick to catch up... which I can't do, because I took a day and a half off last week due to illness.

Gr. Argh.

ETA: I totally get today's Questionable Content. I've written versions of Faye's Dora's third panel dialogue in my journal more than once. I wish I could get a dog so I could project my insecurities better...

Hometown Meme

Think about what cities or towns you've lived in (not just visited) in your life, and post them in your journal:

Des Moines, IA (9 years, 5 locations at least)
Rock Island, IL (6 years, 2 locations)
Davenport, IA (3 years)
Iowa City, IA (2.5 years, 3 locations)
Phoenix, AZ (1 year, 3 locations)

Heh. Okay, so I claim Davenport as my hometown even though I spent three times as much time in Des Moines and twice as much time in Rock Island (which isn't even Iowa, technically), but my best and least completely embarassing/painful memories of pre-adult life come from Davenport.

Boy, I sure do move a lot. 14 locations in just under 22 years (five more days...). Longest I ever lived in one place was the five and a half years at the house on 23rd St in Rock Island... Shortest I ever lived in one place was the month I crashed at Mom's before getting my own place here in Phoenix.
