mr sandman....

gist #74
today i am most grateful for sleep
i have slept almost the entire day. i kid you not.
i woke up around 10:30 am and ate some cereal.
my body still felt like it was collapsing to pieces, so i decided to go back to bed.
good decision.
i continued to sleep until about 2:45pm.
i went downstairs and was lucky enough to be right in time to eat some hot dogs hot off the grill.
yummy.
i think i had two!
nope, i had one. i did however have two hot dogs on saturday.
we did our family memorial day get together on saturday.
and like i said, i ate two hot dogs then. cause they were yummy.
after my one hot dog today, i still felt awful.
my body felt a little better, but i felt like i was going to fall back asleep in the kitchen.
so, without giving it a second thought,
i went back upstairs and passed out in my bed.
sleep is one of the most important things when you have an autoimmune disease.
its like a battery charger.
yet, i skimp on sleep. and then i binge on sleep.
today-oh today i binged on sleep.
anyway, i woke up at about 6:45pm, and thought to myself:
"should i go get something to eat."
(i hope you are enjoying the fact that all i care about is sleep and food)
(i've got priorities)
but then i thought:
well, maybe i should just go back to bed now, and try to sleep until tomorrow"
(yes, i live a pathetic life. i was tired damnit!)
but, hunger got the better of me, so i slowly worked my way downstairs to where the food is.
then i got a text message.
it reminded me:
i had TWO birthday parties for TWO people named RYAN to go to.
i was already an hour late for one.
fuck.
i totally forgot i had two.
i remembered one- to which i was an hour late, but forgot about the other.
"how am i going to pull this off?"
anyway. i did some planning, got myself "organized", and threw some crappy clothes on quickly, cause the first party started at 6:00pm, and by now its already 7:30pm.
i wish i had taken a couple of minutes to sexy myself up a little
because i ran into my ex.
no, not "The Ex" i sometimes talk about on here.
ugh, not him.
my high school sweetheart ex.
well, that is not a good way to describe him.
lets call him my "rollercoaster/carousel ex"
because our relationship always seemed to go around in circles and take some incredible turns and dips along the way.
i shouldn't have even mentioned him.
i'm trying to think of who my "real life friends "that read this blog are, because i will never live this down:
it was nice seeing him. i missed him a lot.
NO, not like THAT.
I SWEAR.
i don't know. it just felt weird/different.
i miss him; i wish we were better friends. i wish we could have a relationship without complicating it.
but, we always seem to complicate it.
i'm not sure if i should put the effort in to be better friends, like we used to be.
i want to, but i don't want it to go THERE, like it always did.
why am i writing this?
i must be pretty drunk to think all these things, (and why am i bringing it up again?)
anyway- went to the next ryan's little get together.
i love these ryans.
they are engaged to two of my best friends. and yes, i am a bridesmaid and super excited about that.
so. what was this blog about?
SLEEP.
yes, and seeing how it is about midnight. i might as well go back to bed, and get some more of it.
(yeah, it means i was only up for abour 5 or 6 hours today.)
(i spent about 4.5 of those hours drinking.)
which is why this is a ridiculously, liquor-fueled post.
good night.
sleep tight.
