Now I lay me down not to sleep...

Mood:
Weird
...I just get tangled in the sheets
I swim in sweat three inches deep
I just lay back and claim defeat
I hate trying to sleep in the Summer. Especially lately, since that I can't seem to fall asleep until the sun is out...
Chapter read and lesson learned
I turned the lights off while she burned
So while she's three hundred degrees
I throw the sheets off and I freeze
Lids down, I count sheep
I count heartbeats
The only thing that counts is
that I won't sleep
I countdown, I look around
Who needs sleep?
well you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep?
tell me what's that for
Who needs sleep?
be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake
since the Second World War
So I went to sleep Friday at 2pm. I got up around 6pm, 'cause I had planned to go out later in the evening. Just in time for dinner. Dad's famous gumbo and cornbread. Watched the Jim Lehrer News Hour and Life & Times immediately after, 'cause that's what we do when there isn't a game on.
My hands are locked up tight in fists
My mind is racing, filled with lists
of things to do and things I've done
Another sleepless night's begun
Lids down, I count sheep
I count heartbeats
The only thing that counts is
that I won't sleep
I countdown, I look around
Who needs sleep?
well you're never gonna get it
Who needs sleep?
tell me what's that for
Who needs sleep?
be happy with what you're getting
There's a guy who's been awake
since the Second World War
Earlier, I'd made a phone call. Maybe around ten or so, I don't really remember. Ended around half-one. It was weird. Fun talk, though. I feel like...I don't know what I feel like. I feel like I'm not done talking...except for the fact that I don't really think I actually have anything to say. Not that this has stopped me in the past, of course, so it's not really a valid point...

There's so much joy in life,
so many pleasures all around
But the pleasure of insomnia
is one I've never found
With all life has to offer,
there's so much to be enjoyed
But the pleasures of insomnia
are ones I can't avoid
Well, it's definitely different. Nice, though. There's something very refreshing about connecting with someone of the opposite sex that doesn't lead to that whole feeling of being twitterpated. Talking with someone who feels similarly about many things, however, gets to be a little strange after a while.
