insomnia

[joegoda]

Lessee... I lay down at about 4:30 to see if I could get some sleep. I've been having this sinus thing that was just buggin' the heck out of the right side of my face, and after breathing salt water for most of the night (oh, and do try not to swallow salt water... does nasty things to your windpipe, or at least it did mine), I found that I couldn't sleep. Maybe it was the salt raising my blood pressure way up to somewhere near day time. Maybe it was that I had just written the death scenes for B&G (and before anyone wonders, it's not the end of the story), what with Pockets already biting the big one. Regardless, between the hours of 4:30 and 7:00 am I got just enough sleep to drool on my pillow. Salty drool. Not to be confused with salt taffy, which is a whole 'nuther story involving stuffed pink Poodles and Steamwheelers.

I think I'll put off going to see the big model planes in Guthrie until tomorrow. Not that I don't think I'd enjoy it today, just that I think I'd enjoy it better if I was awake. Driving would probably be better that way too. Saturday, the crowds would be out, the trolley rides would be more interesting, and I bet they have food vendors that are just to die for.

Anyway, I see Susi and Becky couldn't sleep either. Maybe it's something in the Ooze. Y'all take care of yourselves. I may be sleeping off and on all day.
