I could tell all of you to ignore my rant of earlier today, that I was tired when I woke up at 5:30 and couldn't get back to sleep, so I was cranky.

But really, most of what I said still applies, even after getting a couple more hours sleep.

The fact of the matter is that I am physically, emotionally, and intellectually tired. I really need a few consecutive days off to recharge myself. And I'm depressed that I can't seem to get them.
