I didn't sleep a wink last night.
Have you ever just had one of those nights? You can't get comfortable, your hot - so you take the blanket off, but then you get cold. The guy upstairs, who apparently has 50 pound weights on each foot and stomps with all his might when he walks, can't seem to sit still. It's 3:00 am buddy!!!
A car outside comes driving into the parking lot with the radio blaring... the "boom! boom!" of the speakers shakes my very soul!!! We get it man!!! You are SO COOL with your loud A$$ radio. He sits in the parking lot with it blaring just a little bit longer while he.... what? I have no idea. Picks his nose?
As I lay there, I begin to imagine myself, and my life, as a video game... I am equipped with a bazooka.... I blow up the booming car. I blow up my neighbor. It's just a game, right? Now I can get some sleep....ahhhhh....
Nope.
Now my mind is racing... I really need to figure out a paper topic for my advanced class.... That pumpkin out on the counter is rotting.... I should throw it out.... flies.... ugh..... tomorrow is clinical... do I have everything?.... why won't Paul stop moving his foot.... Oh great... now he has his knee up and it keeps falling to the side.... It's 4:30 am.... I can still get 2 1/2 hours... come on!!
Silence?
The birds decide to start chirping.... I hate nature. It's WINTER!! Fly south!!! Oh wait, this is the South.
So... I guess I'll sleep on Friday.

Oh man! I hate nights like that. I'm sorry you didn't get any sleep! I loved your use of the word A$$! I love the a$$ word! I hope you are able to get a lot of rest this weekend. I love that we can keep in touch like this. Love ya!
That's the worst, when you lie there thinking, "If I fall asleep right this minute, I can still get ____ hours of sleep." Then you lie there for another hour and again think, "If I fall asleep right THIS minute, I can still get _____ hours of sleep."
Usually for me that turns into, "Holy smokes! Even if I fall asleep right this second, I'm only going to get a half an hour of sleep! What's the freaking point?!?! I'll just get up early and get in the freaking shower."
Misery. Pure misery. Hope you've been sleeping better since.
