Stuck

It's that sort of tired that just leaves you stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Stay up, ignore the tired, and you end up with a headache.
Go take a nap, try to rest up, and...you end up with a headache.

There's no real way to win really, when I get that sort of tired,
The exhaustion behind the eyes, the weariness that begs you to sleep but your brain is too active and your body too tense from work to fully relax. 

I tried the nap aspect today. Get some rest.
And while it helped to rest me up.
It didn't mean that I escaped from the headache that appeared once I became conscious and opened my eyes.
*exhales*

Thankfully it didn't stay long, but it definitely wasn't fun to deal with while I had it because it made me sensitive to light temporarily.
