Issue #0919| Mosquito bites, even more new slang, etc.
Dear World:
Today, and yesterday, and tomorrow (once), I can't (and couldn't) sleep! I felt too amazing. So I got up. And danced around. And lay in bed in the dark listening to "Read my Mind" on repeat, smiling broadly and occasionally laughing quietly to myself.
Is this me slipping into madness? If it is, I don't mind, really. It feels pretty good. I am on what I believe is a natural high right now and I am waaayyy too awake to sleep. I'm seriously considering getting into my car and driving around for a bit before finally deciding I'm tired enough to stay in one place for a few hours.
I have mosquito bites on my head and arms. They itch, but I actually am happy to have them, as they are proof that I was outside for a while. I need to be outside ALL the time. But alas, I can't be, so I've got to have bites to show for what time I do spend out there in the wide world.
I bought a bathing suit today. It cost me fifteen dollars. Most girls that I know spend upwards of eighty to one hundred dollars on bathing suits, which is absolutely outrageous in my opinion. I haven't bought a new bathing suit in a very long time. The last one I bought was a leopard print bathing suit that cost me ten bucks, and the only reason I bought it was because leopard print ANYTHING reminds me of hilarious creepy older women who sport such bathing suits and hit on the young pool boys. That cracks me up to think about. So I bought the bathing suit and acted obnoxious while wearing it. The one that I bought today is striped red and white, and the red makes me happy. I dunno why.
Maybe I'm suffering from minor heat stroke, because I'm on day two of this spacey high that I've been drifting around in. I can't imagine why I would have heat stroke, I haven't been doing anything out in the heat that would provoke such a condition. But you never know in this day and age, do you?
Katie is coming over on Friday, and I am excited. I work 8:30-3 on Friday, and 1:30-7 on Sunday, but I know that Justine has the morning (and as far as I know, the day) off on Friday, and on Sunday Kathleen may actually LEAVE me to (gasp) go do something ELSE! But I guess I can accept that there are other things, you know, out there. In the world. Which, as I just remembered, I am apparently writing to right now. The world doesn't read this, but you do.
Now I have news for you. I just released the first sincere yawn I've been able to yield in the last ten hours. Is this the beginnings of a morning's sleep for me? Do you know that it's 2:01am right now? I dunno what time it is for you at the moment you read this... but I'd like to bet that right now, in my time, you are sleeping. Or trying to sleep. Or maybe you're in between sleeping and being awake. Either way, I bet you're not sitting up right now.
And if you are sitting up right now, you should be online. Then I would have somebody to talk to. Because literally 4 people are online right now, and all 4 are set to "away". I hate when people do that: leave their status on "away" for hours and hours. Just go offline and get it over with, geez people. You're not going to miss anything in those few hours that you aren't there.
Here comes sincere yawn #2. Gosh this is getting exciting.
I think I am going to check my grades for this term (because apparently one was released and I have not yet been able to look) and then I might fuck around with some pictures, or go to bed, or go ahead and drive my car until I feel it is unsafe, at which point I will return home and go to sleep somewhere in the house or on the property. I'd prefer a spot indoors though, as the mosquitoes would not be appreciated at this point.
Love Sharon. Really.
