the clock is laughing in my face
aka: no rest for the wicked, yet exhausted
Why can't I sleep? Honestly, in two hours I have to get up and get ready for work. Problem is, I am up. Right now. Hours before I need to be. And I haven't had any sleep. I slept from 10:30 until 2am. And then I woke up and have been tossing and turning ever since. Argh. This sucks ass. I know that is a completely juvenile thing to say, but it is undeniably true. And since I am feeling juvenile anyway, I'm even going to say that it sucks big hairy ardvark ass. Whatever the hell that would be like...*just grossed self out* I only say such things because I can't very well lay down on the floor and throw a kicking and screaming tantrum for 2 reasons (well, I'm sure there's more, but these are the two that matter to me): 1) I am 25. Not exactly something an adult does, and b) no one is here to witness it--it doesn't count unless someone witnesses it. Ugh.
*cries weak and pathetically* Why does my one true love leave me high and dry? What have I ever done to sleep that it would do me this way? I have been a loyal lover--always praising it and letting it have its way with me for as many hours a day as possible. *sobs openly* I'll do anything--anything to get it back! *gets desperate*
... *heavy sigh* I'm seriously considering making a pot of coffee right now and just staying up. I mean, it seems better than tossing and turning, becoming more and more frustrated as the two hours remaining pass. I am going to end up exhausted for work either way. Wouldn't it be better to choose to stay awake and be less frustrated? But then again, what if by some miracle, I layed down and actually fell asleep? Sleep seems more valuable than gold right now. Go ahead--offer me $1,000 dollars or two hours of good sleep after a turbulent night. Give me the goddamn sleep! *sigh*
Ok, I will stop here. I'll make my lunch for work and then lay in bed and read until one of two things happens: 1) it is time to get up and go to work, or 2) I fall asleep (yeah, I know I'm only dreaming <---ha! what a cruel, sick joke...). I hope that everyone will have a good "Monday", or Tuesday if you actually worked yesterday, and that you all had some restful sleep. Ciao.
