Today I slept until 2:30 in the afternoon. They say the desire to sleep forever is indicative of suicidal tendencies. This was definitely that kind of sleep. It was the sleep that carries you away from your reality like that kid in "Flight of the Navigator", a sleek silver shell wherein everything is perfect, zooming over the landscape at speeds that can only happen in dreams and science fiction. The thought of waking up seemed ridiculous when compared to spending another six days in a soft blanket with everyone I love. warm and dark and perfectly beautiful. Sometimes I wonder why I wake up at all. Hey you, people I love, some of you are really far away. It makes little difference. When we are all together again we should curl up in a dark room and watch "Flight of the Navigator". Yes.
