		<description><![CDATA[&#160;&#160;I haven&#8217;t been getting enough sleep. This was painfully apparent last night. By the time I got home from work, I had a pounding headach3 that would only subside when I laid down and closed my eyes. A bit of dinner also helped, and a couple of Advil, but I&#8217;m sure a full eight hours [...]]]></description>
