It was an experience not soon forgotten.

I honestly don't think I have much to write about. Which defeats the entire purpose of my blog. I've been pretty stressed out lately, but thankfully I wrote my last of 7 midterms in one month. Some more successful then others.

Leonard left today for his long weekend, four days away. And, yes, I'm on of those girlfriends, who gets infinitely sad when her boyfriend leaves. What can I say? I love him. It will be a long four days. Lets hope that I make it through.

I participated in some Halloween festivities. I guess you could say. It was my best friends birthday, and so we went to Ladies Night. It was an experience not soon forgotten.

I went with half a skull face, and pretty doll face.

It took me forever to do.

 The vampire teeth didn't appear in the final costume. It was a joke - it came in my makeup kit. Spooky fun!

We meet some awesome people there. And I made a new friend. Drinks were cheap, and good times were had all around. Even though I was originally skeptical about going out, and drinking, it was worth it. 

I started my first actual shift at work, at 6:45 a.m. It involved me lifting more then 1,000 boxes off the back of an 18-wheeler, unloaded the contents in the boxes, loading it back in, sorting the boxes, unloading them again and censoring them. It was awful.

My boyfriend needed to stop at Wal-Mart before we headed home. I fell asleep in the sporting goods isle. Lovely nap! 

Yesterday, I had the privilege of meeting the most distinguished David Carr. A renowned journalist from the New York times. It was a fantastic opportunity. I was a wee bit excited. 

I wrote this because my day has been pretty tough and writing seems to help a little bit. Hopefully, it is a good read to someone else.

WHY THE HELL AM I NOT SLEEPING, SRSLY?

Can I tell the one thing that sucks about insomnia? IN-FUCKING-SOMNIA.

I have spent that last week not sleeping until the wee hours of the morning, and then sleeping into well into the day. Normal? Not in the least!

The fact that I can sleeping until 1:30  2:30 in the afternoon speaks volumes. Who the lives there lives like this?

I swear I'm going insane. And it's getting worse my by the day.

Rocking my Hello Kitty pajamas I ask you WHY THE HELL AM I NOT ASLEEP? This unrelenting schedule of staying up most of the night and not wake until mid-afternoon is causing me too be far less healthy. My choices are limited to the time I wake up and the energy I don't have because of my lack of sleep.

In lieu I am forced at 1:30, sometimes, 2:30 to make my breakfast and try to start the day then. But my body is not benefiting much for the process since my sleeping patterns are off.

Though my choices remain either organic or natural and seemingly healthy, I'm making them later and to now available schedule. Even though I'm being healthy and exercising, it means nothing if it is not consistent in some form or another. That's reality.

So for tonight, I'll lay comfortable in my Hello Kitty pajamas...

Eyes wide open, and ask myself one very simple unanswerable question...WHY THE HELL AM I NOT SLEEPING, SRSLY?

Are you sleeping?
