Can't sleep, so I'm cleaning! Haha. Well, I stopped myself after a couple rooms. My husband has friends over, so I thought it would be a little rude to kick them out of the room they're in so i can clean it. haha.

Being manic sucks!

Wow, maybe that medication is too much for you if it's making you manic. Birthday in February. 25 is a big day though. 1/4 of a century old!!

yeah it feels weird to think i'll be 25! as for the mania, i don't mind as long as it never gets so bad that i do something dangerous or risky. i mean, i am taking the vyvanse to be more focused. haha. now i'm hyper-focused! Smile
