Day 7

Today was suppose to be my "quit date", but due to the lack of drug interaction, I decided to push it back a couple more days.  I'll admit that I am a little scared and hesitant to toss the tobacco, but I'm trying to ease into the idea.  I don't think I will freak out or anything, I just want the affect of going tobacco-less to be as negligible as possible.
My dreaming is getting more vivid by the night and I'm noticing a bit of interrupted sleep during the night.  I've awoken around 3am each of the last few nights.  Falling asleep isn't the problem at all.  In fact, for the past two nights, I have fallen asleep in the living room with all the lights on and the front door wide open.  This might not seem like a big deal to some, but I never fall asleep anywhere but my bed and I live in Memphis, TN and my neighborhood is, lets say, less than savory.  I have been going to bed earlier than usual but, my energy level has decreased a slight bit.  Typically, if I get anywhere near 8 hours of sleep, I am refreshed and springing out of bed.  More than 6 usually produces similar results.  However, the last few nights, Ive slept right around 8hrs and still proceed with a groggyness throughout the day.  I'm still making it to the gym regularly but, my lethargy at work is slightly worrisome.  Worrisome is a bit heavy here as I am about as unsatisfied in my job as one can be, so lets just go with troubling.  Troubling in the fact that I almost nodded off on my lunch break when I could have  been stuffing my face.
Thats about it for Monday.
