Too tired to sleep

Have you ever been so exhausted that you lose all motivation to do anything, even to smile?
Well, my friend, I'm there.
I believe that the most amount of sleep I've had in about a week is 5 hours one night.  I wake at 7am each day to get ready for work.  And I stay up late watching movies and talking with my girlfriend.
Don't get me wrong, I don't regret these long nights in the least. 
Lately, I've noticed that I'm much less motivated to do anything.  Eat, walk, laugh, work, even sleep.  I feel angry, or sad, but I have nothing to be sad or angry about.  Sure, work is a little boring, but the rest of my life is fantastic.  I don't see any other reason why I would feel this way, other than the lack of sufficient sleep.  There is no reason for depression.  So it must be sleep?
It just feels like I have no time in the day.  I get home from work around 3pm, then I have to give the dog her medicine and check the pool, (which is always having a problem), and fix it.  Then I go visit my girlfriend, we go get something for dinner, maybe watch a movie.  Before I know it, it's time to sleep (at 2 or 3am), and then repeat the process all over again.  My room is a mess because I haven't had time to clean it.  My face is scruffy because I haven't even had time enough to shave.  That's a sad statement, not even enough time to shave my face.
So I get my 3 or 4 hours of sleep each night.  And lately it's been taking a toll on me. 

In other news, I am officially traveling to Italy this coming Fall Semester, and staying for two months.  Also, I've planned a weekend trip to Greece while I'm there.  That was quite a difficult feat!  First of all, I couldn't use any of the websites I needed, because they were all in Greek.  So it took a few days, looking at a multitude of websites, while changing back and forth between the website I needed and a greek translation website.  A lot of work, but I'm finally done.  I am also officially going to Greece!  Also through this experience, I've learned some Greek!

Hopefully in my next entry, I'll be able to say how much better I'm feeling.
Until then.
