I'll let you know as soon as I get out of bed a week from Thursday. Haaaa.  Lack of sleep can cause problems: Mood. Memory. Overeating. Heart Attack? Yes according to "well documented" sources.

Moody Rudy - A Little self love. Don't be "slangry."

High Risk Jobs - Doctors included, may reschedule that morning stuff.

Clean Up Your Sleep - May need a change in routine.

Mail A Letter - Or email to lawmakers. Stop The Insanity. Hawaiians and Arizonans seem happy.
