Ramblings of an Insomniac

I have trouble falling asleep. sometimes it's better than others but right now it's bad. This is the fourth night in a row that I've been up past midnight. Tonight I went to bed three hours ago but no luck so I got up trying to wear myself out. Tomorrow I'm calling the doctor and asking for some Ambien. No I am not kidding. I tried laying down, watching TV, reading, listening to music and nothing has been working.

The not so funny thing is my hubby can fall asleep in as soon as he gets still. The cat is asleep and the dogs are asleep, one is even snoring, I think she is taunting me.

Right now I have a lot of things that are swirling around my head.

Most of it wondering- like We got bin Laden..it's a great day to be an American. It is wrong to celebrate the death of a man, even one so evil. Why do people insist on not giving Pres. Obama any credit and think that he is taking all the credit? Will people ever give him the credit that he is due? When is America going to be attacked again? Why do people either think he's not dead or died last week or years ago?


Last week I found out that a friend of mine made a mistake. A mistake that many people make. The wrong people found out and insisted that everybody know about it. So old wounds were opened up and now her life is in chaos. So why do we insist on doing this to people? In my vast experience (ha ha ha) I have learned that most people point fingers at others because they don't want people pointing their fingers at them. I don't have any room to call people out on things because I have plenty of things that I don't want people to find out about me.

There is so much I need to do- I need to get prizes for a basketball tournament, take a bunch of stuff back to Lowe's and Home Depot, but my mom a Mother's Day gift, get graduation gifts, clean the kitchen, paint the living room, call the guy about the floor in the living room...Maybe I'm anxious....I could go on and on but luckily for you I'm not.

There is the thoughts of my legs feel weird, I long have I had that bump? I'm laying on my hair I have to have the cool side of the pillow...

Now that some of the stuff in my head is clear I am actually sleep. One can hope.
