I'm at the annoying intersection of tired and awake. If my eyes are open, I feel incredibly tired. If I go lie down and close my eyes, I feel more rested than I've ever been in my life. Hmm, I just tested: I don't even need to be lying down ( Read more... )

I used to think that I wasn't young anymore when I realized that there wasn't really time in my life to pursue a different interest (which is really unfortunate for someone like me who is average at and has interest in many things, but who is not exceedingly good at any one thing). I'm fairly certain my path is not very alterable now. But no, ( Read more... )

Sleeplessness. It mocks me.
Sentence structure. I've lost it.
Silly. I'm being it.
Alliteration. I just killed it.

Sure, I suppose I try amusing myself with it. But something like half of my e-friends have abandoned their journals since around 2004, ( Read more... )

There was a light rain this morning, so I went for a walk.  It wasn't home, but it was close enough.  The rain grew steadily with each step that I took.  Unfortunately, the rain stopped when I went inside a building.  Fortunately, the rainometer reset itself after I went into a second building, and my walk home was accompanied by a diminishing ( Read more... )

Hello? Oh, hi, Insomnia. Do you know what time it is? Wait, what am I thinking? Of course you do. So what's up?  You're just calling to say what? Aw, how sweet. I love you too.  Oh, hey, while I've got you on the phone, can I ask you something?  If I were to ask you on a date, would that make our friendship so awkward that you wouldn't want to hang ( Read more... )

I seem to have acquired a second wind when really all I wanted to do was lose all my wind and fall asleep.
