Because This Is My Life: 2012

I do not "do" New Year's Eve so I made the "resolution" to be asleep before midnight.

Also, I had not a thing to do or place to be on the 1st of January.

Woohoo! Party time! Took a whole sleeping pill instead of a half and threw myself in bed at about 10:30 and did not set an alarm to wake up in the morning. 12 hours of sleep here I come!

Yes. That is my definition of party time.

But when I got into bed, I heard fireworks go off. And maybe a gun. And then I started thinking about being killed by a stray bullet at midnight.

And then I started praying that I please hurry up and fall asleep so that I die in my sleep and not be awake when the stray bullet hits me. Also, I started thinking about getting under my bed. But I restrained myself.

And then I could not fall asleep.

I finally fell asleep at about 11:45.

Only to wake up because of all the fireworks (and maybe guns) at midnight. But because of the sleeping pill I drifted right back off to sleep.

And then I woke up at like 8:00 AM. And basically did nothing the entire day. Certainly not the dishes.


All of this to say, the year may have changed, but that is about it around here.
