I really do not recall the last time I was this sleepy. I really only have myself to blame. Och I will blame Piper too.
It all started out as a normal Tuesday evening. I left work, went to class, got overloaded with information & then departed for home.
On my way home I told myself once I reached my destination I would feed the hell hounds (aka my cats- trust me they are just like hell hounds when they need to be fed) & then I would make a yummy sandwich & just watch a wee bit O TV & then go to bed at 9.
When I opened the fridge I saw that hubby made pasta. I weighed my options...sandwich or pasta. We had no turkey meat but we had some bbq chips that go very well on a peanut butter & jelly sandwich....as delicious as that sounded I can not resist pasta. It calls to me like a siren's song.
I consumed my bowl of pasta & some bread. Still feeling hungry I opted for a handful of BBQ chips. It is fast approaching 9:00 but I do not feel like I am ready to hit the sheets. SO I say OK I will watch about 10 minutes of Fringe & then go to bed.
That 10 minutes turned into the whole hour. Once the show ended & I was quick to get my ass off the couch & get ready for bed.
Keifer kept me out late on Monday & then Fringe goes & does the same thing. Those BASTARDS!!!
It takes about another 30 minutes or so for me to fully fall asleep. So now we are talking close to 10:45ish. Well then the wee one Piper....she thinks its a good idea to get up at 3:00. She was a bit fussy so I think she may have a bad dream. I put her back to bed she wants a story but I just want to go back to sleep. So I gave her a book & a stuffed animal & told her to read her book to her animal. That seemed to please her. After a few hugs & kisses I went right back into bed, looked at the clock & said wow only one more hour till the damn alarm goes off. Silently I hoped the hell hounds would not demand me up sooner.
The fates were not so kind & I was unable to really get back to sleep. I got maybe 20-30 minutes of sound sleep. Then not only did the alarms start going off but the hell hounds started demanding food before the alarms even went off!!!
Now I sit here unable to concentrate & a bit out of sorts. Yvette calls & I cant seem to get her name right. I called her Karen & Denise. Oh my!!!
Thankfully I do not work tomorrow so I will be able to sleep in (ha ha yeah right!!!)
Hisses & kisses
