all you want to do is sleep and say goodnight
I do not understand why I can't sleep anymore. Lucky you who gets to read my adventures in insomnia. Must put you out like a light, eh? I thought I would go out tonight, drink too much beer and fall right out, but I didn't go out. So I had a glass of wine at home. I went to bed, read a magazine, then just laid there in the dark for a half hour that felt like 700 years. That is so boring, by the way.
So I am up again. I hate it. I wonder is it a return to mania? Because I was manic, you know, for exactly one summer in 1991. But I was so young then, who needed sleep? Also, there was so much TV to watch, as I'd just got cable. And I was really into alphabetizing my music collection and washing walls and such. Whoa. Now I am old and cranky, and worse than that, I can't come up with one good thing to do to pass the time. Except this, which really isn't working for me. Or you, I'd imagine. Bleh.

Michael, I think you are conditioned to sleep. A lot, and through anything. After all, there you were snoring away while I alphabetized CDs and washed the baseboards, right? So blame me. Or don't. Sleep is good for you. 15 hours is a bit much, but 3 hours is not enough. If you learn one thing from me, learn that. Also, have you seen "Garden State"? Annoyingly, I have the song from the commercial stuck in my head, but it reminded me to wonder if you've seen it. I am going to paste this comment over at your journal, in case you don't see this.
Oh Jane, if you have not seen "Shaun of the Dead," you need to see it, it is magic. Your brother is wise. Why am I awake? The drinking! So I will sleep through the entire day tomorrow and then it will be Saturday and work. I need to do laundry. And sleep. And yet I stay awake. I almost wrote "Nad yet I stay awake". Eew.
Oh man! I was awake at that time too. But I was in my bed awake. I am also awake now. Something is very wrong with this. Maybe I will go back to bed now.
I am the worst insomniac. I haven't been able to fall asleep before 3 a.m. for weeks. Actually, I've suffered from insomnia for as long as I can remember. I just like to say that I'm a night owl. I'm pretty much sleepwalking all day and then I finally become coherent after 10 p.m.
