insomnia

so i went to bed at midnight last night. and woke up at 2am. the strange thing? i wasnt the least bit tired. i was ready to conquer the world!! one problem though: there isnt a whole lot to conquer at 2am in suburban chicago. i ended up throwing doggie into the car and we went to the 24 hr grocery store. exciting huh? some people go to clubs at 2am to PART-AY!! me? i go to the frozen food section. got a great deal on lean cuisines though!! (how pathetic is my excitement at saving a few bucks?? lol)

so i got home. and doggie ran off after a bunny. (ok- it was my fault. i didnt bother putting her leash on. she normally follows me obediently except for ONE exception: bunnies.) i called her name. walked around. but finally,i defiantly announced "FINE! IM LEAVING YOU TO SLEEP OUTSIDE IN THE SNOW TONIGHT!!" & went into the house to put away all groceries. sure enough, when i came back out there she was sitting on the front step wagging her tail like "hi! what's up?" "GET IN HERE!" i yelled holding the door open. of course she nuzzled up to me w/this "im sorry" look. (she knows how to play me) and of course, my arm went right around her to scratch her ears. by this time it was around 4am.

laid down again. and...nothing. not a yawn in site. so i started watching tv. problem? there's only one thing on at 4am: infomercials. juicers. workout machinery. sandwich machines. vacuum cleaners. its so funny how the hosts make each product sound SOO very exciting. i killed time watching that red-haired older lady talk up the sandwich machine "like no other." ok. 6am.

at 630am? "levitra" for erectile disfunction. call 866-levitra. "why wait? ask your doctor if levitra is right for you!" ok...

laid down again. and...nothing. i resorted to watching "That's So Raven" reruns. remember Raven? Raven Simone from the cosby show?? she's a young adult now and her show makes millions w/the "Cheetah Girls". her chest is huge by the way. like massive. it was fantastic though- watching her cheesy show at 6am. then i watched "degrassi: the next generation". remember Degrassi High?? OMG- i grew up with Degrassi. i loved them all. it was stange to see the characers with "real" jobs now working at degrassi high as teachers. wow.

7am. OMG--- 1 YAWN!!! WOW!!! so i finally fell asleep. and then. 9am. EYES POPPED OPEN. so i got 2 hours of sleep. im not the least bit tired either. um...??? strange.

i guess insomnia isnt that bad. i got to:

1) find lean cuisines at record-low prices
2) lose my dog
3) find my dog (although i didnt so much "find her" as she "came back")
4) watch raven simone
5) catch up on degrassi high
6) learn about new products on the market

sweet. i wonder what tonight will hold.
