My "it's after 2 am and I can't sleep so I'll post since I haven't done that in a while" post

Today has been a long day.  I had to pick my little sister up from the church lock-in by 8 this morning and then there was a lot of nothing (aka finishing secret diary of a call girl) until about 4 when I went to my cousin's for "mother's helper" duties.  It's like being a babysitter, but it sounds more professional and there's usually a parent around doing things or running errands while I try to corral the kids.  There are six of them between the ages of 2 and 8, three of them are autistic, and at least one of them has ADHD.  I was the "new toy" last week so they thought I was fabulous and if I told them to do something--even pick up toys--they'd do it.  Today--not so much.  But today was the big moving day so I'll cut them some slack.  Until recently, well today officially, they've been living in a trailer.  Now they have a yard and this huge house.  Yay repossessed home!  It took three of us to get them in bed and that didn't happen til about midnight.  At which point I was finishing a large coke and now--even though I should be sleeping 'cause I've gotta be there in the morning--I can't sleep.  So I'm trying to figure out what exactly kama sutra tea is.  It appears to be a loose leaf version of chai tea.  You can find it in the home and garden section on ebay.  I was looking for bachelorette party gifts (I was kinda hoping for salt and pepper shakers, but alas).
In other news, I have two weeks left of the semester and then I get to visit my older sister.  YAY!!
And now my best friend has called so adieu.
