Sub-Conscious Early Bird

I'm so tired, I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired, my mind is on the blink
I wonder should I get up and fix myself a drink
No, no, no

I love sleep. I love to sleep. But I hate going to sleep. It's a terrible conundrum. I'm pretty sure, on an average weekday I get around six hours of sleep. Even if I'm in bed, I'm usually reading until midnight. That's not even counting the time it takes me to actually fall in to a state of comfort and slumber. I usually make up for my lack of actual sleep on the weekends. It doesn't take much. Just one Saturday of sleeping in, and poof. I honestly hate waking up in the afternoon though. I have the WORST dreams when I sleep for too long. When I say I have bad dreams, I don't mean nightmares. The dreams are just SO confusing, that is annoys me to the point of uneasy frustration.

I never understand what's going on during the dreams, and I can never explain them to people successfully. Just, so much will be going on at once, and it will never make any sense to me. This will make me so frustrated, that I'll force myself awake. I'm mostly sure it's a clever tactic carried out by my sub-conscious to make me not waste the day. Like when you used to have sleepovers, and your friend wants to get up and play, but you're still in bed. My sub-conscious is my slumber party buddy! Only he can't just leave me and go play Nintendo while waiting for me to wake up.

The pillow fights must be tough...

On the topic of sleepovers and such, it always catches me by surprise when I'm telling people about my weekend, I say something along the lines of "oh Mike slept over..." and they respond with, OH a SLEEPOVER! I think; what, no, he slept over... There's a huge difference to me. Mike has slept over at my house (or vice versa) pretty much every other weekend for years now. It's a normal thing. A sleepover to me is like, a party or anyone except for Mike. I used to have sleepovers with Maria, Hannah, Ang and the whole gang from elementary school but sadly, now inter-gender sleepovers are Taboo. Sigh

My next post, will be the first installment of: (*drum-roll*)LEWIS' DREAMS will be written in a couple minutes! :D

EDIT: Nevermind! Maybe tomorrow. Meh
