Christmas is still lingering in the air around here - the smell of turkey, the faint jingling of tunes, leftovers packing the fridge, and a tree the size of Michigan looming unobtrusively in the corner of the living room.

It was a lot of fun, pictures have been posted and a great heaping helping of dinner has been consumed amidst friends and family.

For Gareth, monies towards his newfound VEX addiction. One I wholly support.

For Mister, LEGO galore (another addiction I wholly support) as well as art supplies and a 'wee screwdriver.

For me? Clothes and tools. Surprisingly exciting and something I'll be using to build shelves in the near future.

Now it's 2:30am and I'm still awake. All the work I do to make the sugars in my diet (read: apple pie and brownies) as slow as possible can make my blood sugar continue to rise after bedtime and tonight I was roused from my slumber to find my 6.2 had climbed to 19.9.

The solution? Medicate, hydrate, and wait - I should be settled soon and back in bed within the hour.

Thankfully a tryptophan-fueled nap from 9-11 will help me deal with any missed sleep.

How about everybody else in eChristmas-land? Have things been filled with ho-ho-holiday cheer?

Tryptophan is an urban legend*. It's the masses of calorie-laden carbs that make everyone sleepy, and make the objective observer notice the pre-(type II)-diabetics round the table...
