Ode to Sleepless Nights

Oh, sleepless nights
How I loathe thee.
You stay with me all night until the daylight is shining once again
And you leave me only achy and tired
As if I never closed my eyes
If I did close my eyes
It was not for long
For most of my night was spent
Reading Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
(Squinty's copy that I must return to her at some point sorry)
Trying to make my eyes burn enough
To lull my body to sleep
But alas!
I failed.
As I also lost the game.
I was up until July 2nd
Past midnight
Past one
And eventually I was desperate enough
To not move and breathe deeply
Which finally made me sleep.
But alas!
I woke up at eight.
I do not know why.
How it troubles my soul.

Okay, I was making part of that up while I was lying in bed, tossing and turning with a sore back and upset stomach (it must be those herbs the acupuncture lady is giving me). So TODAY, now that no one is around...I'm going to Aerie with my father. I'm sure he'll love that. Well actually I'm imagining that he's going to wait in the parking lot for a while, while i go shopping (a tad, just the free gift at Aerie, maybe something there and then I'll hit Forever 21 because I <3 that place).
Oh, Mike went for his driving license yesterday and....didn't get it. And you're probably thinking "Oh no, it was that parallel parking." Nope. He hit that SPOT. ON. But apparently he wasn't thinking at an intersection and he turned right on a red which distinctly said 'NO TURN ON RED'. He wasn't a happy camper, but i cheered him up. :D
Yesterday I went to see Up again with My Twin, Trumpeteer and Kulp and it ROCKED. Unfortunately I cried harder this time than the second time. And it was actually hilarious. My Twin and I were hysterical in the beginning of the movie and we don't even know why, and then 5 minutes later I had to keep passing tissue packs down the line of us when Mr. Frederickson's wife dies. So we would comment at the movie all the time, laugh REALLY loudly, cry SO loudly (the poor other people in there...though there were about 4 others)...it was hilarious, really.

It was a great night. Though I was outraged that I had to pay $4.50 for a SMALL DIET COKE. I was appalled. Kulp bought Skittles for $5.00. Crazy crazy crazy.

I'm off to eat breakfast.
