I am zombified since Charlie woke up early today and yesterday... each day I took a small nap, but then couldn't sleep at night. So I am super tired.
What do you do when you're zonked and useless at work? I actually have a lot of work I have to get done before midnight, so I can't just try and nap or zonk my way through the day...

Luckily my work is at home taking care of lo. DH's off again tonight so i'll be flying SOLO FOR 2 DAYS.

Can you get to a gym for a quick run? That usually peps me up for a while. And getting in a good work out will also help you to sleep more soundly tonight.
When all else fails lots of caffeine.

@MamaMoose: ditto!
Exercise usually perks me up, even just a brisk walk. Otherwise hit the coffee pot!

That was Saturday- I felt crummy all day and my husband was at work. Can't exactly call in sick as a SAHM.
That night I had my first "mommy meltdown" of being too tired and overwhelmed- so my husband had me pump a few bottles and he took the night shift. I felt so good on Sunday! He on the other hand was exhausted- it made me feel better that its not just me who feels run down after a night shift!

I usually go for a short walk thru the museum and shop in the gift shop and pick up a coffee or diet coke and a snack in the cafeteria. By the time I'm back at my desk, I'm a little more energized and I have a snack to tide me over til the end of the day! (zombified usually happens around 2pm, I leave at 4.)

i usually make up the hours later because right now, we don't have strict deadlines. i haven't been sleeping well lately either so i'm pretty zombified.

I am also in that camp, too. LO's sleeping is being sabotaged by her rolling over and it's affecting all sleep (naps, night, mine). You can tell when I'm a zombie based on the number of posts I have. Lots = good sleep. Little = bad sleep.
I don't have advice

When I'm tired (or have a headache) I utilize the jumper more and do lots of belly time. That way I can either lie on the couch or next to her on the floor.
@Rubies: Hope your LO figures out her sleep soon so you can both get some rest!
