Sleepless in Super Wal-Mart-Ville

So, I have to go to bed at a decent time tonight!!!

This “night owl” is turning over a new leaf!

Each night I act like I’m on vacation - not an adult with adult responsibilities…

And every morning at 5:30 or so, I feel like…well, horrible.

The training at the theater went well - so many people…it was wonderful! Then we had to pick up random supplies at Wal-Mart. (…I couldn’t find gaffers tape, though.)

Then, at the check-out Byron was saying “what’s wrong?” and he sounded like he was in a tunnel and with that weird slow-motion voice…I couldn’t feel my face, and everything looked wavy

I was able to sit down before I hit the floor - How embarrassing!! The man on the bench next to me kept giving me weird looks - but he didn’t look that hot either!

Anyway, I’ve spent the last few hours folding and packing up t-shirts - the new “LOVE WINS” ones are so cool - and I’m still feeling strange…

…so, I am going to bed at a decent hour, even if it kills me - it might because I can’t stand going to sleep! My motto has always been, “I’ll sleep when I’m dead…or in the morning…why waste a perfectly good night by sleeping!?” (Man, I’m wordy - even in my mottoes!)

But, that’s not a very adult attitude, I know…

…especially if I don’t want to cause a raucous at the Super Wal-Mart!

So, tonight I’ll think peaceful thoughts, listen to New Age music, and tell myself in a very soothing voice, “You’re feeling sleepy…very, very sleepy…”

…and maybe, just maybe it will work.

If not, the people in the front of the theater might want to keep one eye open as they worship, and keep their ears open for someone yelling, “Man down…I mean, way-too-tall-blonde down in front!!”

I probably should wear my zebra print jacket so they can see me coming and get out of the way.

I’m gonna go now and begin thinking sleepy thoughts.

(Even though I still have to wash laundry, highlight my hair, bedazzle…everything, and wash my purse dog (he got into something stinky today…)…maybe I’ll sleep on Monday!)

Sweet dreams-ish…peace.

    We’ll be there at 6am and I’m going to try to get to sleep early! For me that will be oh…before midnight. Maybe some warm milk?
    It feels like the night before you leave on a vacation or Christmas Eve…exciting and nervous. I can’t wait!!
    And no passing out allowed. Are you ok?
    Don’t make me come up there! lol
    Love you guys,
    Colleen

    You’re sweet…I’m fine - just a little hypoglycemic and behaving badly.
    I just wouldn’t sit too close to the front - lol :-) Have a peaceful night…get some rest - c u tomorrow. Love, Angie

    The same thing happened to me at Publix. I was by myself and hurried to the bench with my groceries. I was afraid if I asked for help some one would call 911. No thanks! I’ve become a night owl lately too. But I do take a nap.
    Actually, I wait until night to play my game. No one to bother me….I can focus. Glad I am enjoying Jeff’s Christmas present.

    Yeah! I think my body thought the Super Wal-Mart looked like a great place to take a nap - but, I don’t recommend it.
    Sounds like I need to learn to play Mario…just what I need, another obsession…
    Don’t stay up too late (You’re C3 which means:
    Connecting the Community at the Crack of dawn…then collapsing)…just kidding - actually that’s 4 c’s, but you get the idea.
    Get some rest. Love, me
