Not to alarm anyone, but there are two versions of myself running around the place. One is "normal" Debie, she eat, she smiles, she goes to the bathroom. the other, the more evil of the two, is "sleepy" Debie. now of those out there who have encountered the sleepy form of myself, let me take this time to apologize for any hurt feelings or attempted murders she has tried to commit.
like many of you out there, i value my sleep dearly. I would much rather fail a test than stay up all night studying for something i don't really care for. i would also much rather sleep in until 2 in the afternoon than play outside on a beautiful day. at any point of the sleep process, whether it's laying in bed preparing for the long slumber, or waking up and brushing my teeth, sleepy Debie is in control. this walking zombie is rude, disoriented, and sluggish in behavior. unstable and shaky in what would otherwise be easily coordinated movements, walking across a room becomes quite the difficult task. sleepy debie is also known to run into doors and knock things over without paying attention to anything or anyone in her path to the bathroom.
Sleepy debie also has a companion. It's name is "wakey face". Wakey face likes to make an appearance after, of course, waking up from naps or in the mornings. if looks could kill, Wakey face would have mass murdered all my roommates and beloved family members by now. everyone hates wakey face but it continues to come back with a vengeance. only after about a half hour later does sleepy debie and her friend leave the premise and normal debie can resume living her life. once the normal self takes over, it's as if the sleepy one never existed. it's amazing, really, the rapid change in personality that occurs within one body.
So normal debie is at a constant battle with sleepy debie. right now the normal version of myself appears to be winning, but keep in mind that sleepy debie has the ally of wakey face. it's an ongoing conflict with no end in sight. all i can say now is i hope none of you out there will be forced to wake up next to me, there's no telling what sleepy debie is capable of.
