My roommates always say, "I feel like you never sleep. But at the same time, you sleep all the f*cking time." And it's true. I love sleep. Naps are one of my favorite things (cue Sound of Music melody), but that's basically all my sleep consists of: just (sometimes very long) naps. But then I go forever without sleeping at all.
Take yesterday (2 days ago?) for example. I was running errands with a friend, getting ready for Relay for Life this weekend, when my mom called to say she was leaving work early. Mind you, this "early" departure occured at 11:30 at night, and yet I still wonder why I'm like this. We ended up cooking vats on vats on vats of taco meat and talking ... until 5:30 in the morning. Then I had a conference call at 10:00am, followed by a long day spent at the high school and running more errands for this godforsaken, though very exciting, weekend.
I came home, spent some time with family, and have been really doing nothing ever since. And when I say nothing, I don't mean I'm sitting here watching TV, or even on the internet (until I decided to write this). I just mosey about my room, slightly adjusting things and thinking to myself. Dilly dallying.
NOT SLEEPING.
And my dad is waking me up on his way to work (6:00am) so that I can start my homework. Why the hell did I think summer classes were going to be a good idea?? After my homework, I'm going back to school all day to get ready for this weekend, then I'm coming home to do more school work before I have to go to a job work meeting at 7:30. And that's before I'm coloring my hair purple again with friends, preparing to wake up at 7:00 in the morning and be awake for more than 24 hours at Relay Saturday into Sunday. Oh, then I get to go to work at 4:00 on Sunday and work all day Monday.
And don't forget, that 50 page reading assignment and 3 page paper are due on Monday by midnight!
I don't know why I do this to myself. I just can't sleep.
WorxEnergy, you are a godsend.
