Sounds like just because you hit the nail on the head doesn't mean it's going to change anything. If it was so easy to fall and stay asleep, I would. For now, I'm going to keep working and get things done. Better to be productive than roll around, frustrated I can't sleep. I thought you'd understand something like that.
[ Despite how deeply she values honesty and directness, it still grazes her a little when it's against her rather than for. It's not great. ]
