Are you lonesome tonight…

I was sleeping quite well this morning, enjoying a lovely dream, when I heard the annoying sound of tapping on the front door. At least, I’m pretty sure it was tapping on the front door. It took a while for me to become coherent enough to notice. I rolled over and saw that it was [...]

[every success I have had has come from my ability to slowly and painfully wear someone down]

I cannot sleep.
I wonder sometimes if I sound the same after so many years. If I am still repeating the same loop of words over and over that I have been since I was old enough to realize that, on occasion, something wasn’t right inside me - the part of me that didn’t care [...]

[this is a “for sure” thing - i’ll be back again]

I can’t sleep. Again. Ohhh big surprise.
I am tired. I am a record set on repeat - a monotonous droning lately of the same thing that I want to be over with and will be soon, which is a partial reason to my lack of posting. I have a few days [...]

[i gotta knuckle down and just be okay with this]

The last dream I remember (in great detail) having I had well over two years ago. I don’t remember my dreams very often. I remember having it because it was technicolored and had you in it. We stole a boat because the world was ending and I didn’t want to be on [...]

[what dreams cause me to abandon my pillow each night?]

I have an intricate amount of things that go into my odd ritual of bedtime and that affect my relationship with sleep.
- I play an average of 30 minutes multi-player Battlefield 2/BF 2142/Call of Duty 4 or actually PvP on WoW before sleeping. The goal is to relax me, but depending on how I [...]

[time is gone, it stops for who it wants]

Insomnia is useful sometimes. Up next: Steal This Book. I’m not done with “The Mole People” yet, but I’ll probably wrap it up tomorrow. My personal opinion is a lot of it is exaggerated if not outright fabricated. At best, the writing is sensationalist. Maybe I’m cynical, but I find [...]

[i still can’t sleep]

I believe there’s something seriously wrong with my circadian rhythm. For the (probably literal) thousandth time, I am in the middle of promising myself to schedule an appointment with a doctor.
I get slightly scared when I can’t go to sleep. Historically, insomnia precedes depressive points in my life. I think that sometimes [...]

[…my throat hurts]

I can’t sleep.
I’ve always hated change. As a young child, I remember getting upset if my mom rearranged my room. As an adult, I like less the distance I put between what I love and is important to me versus what is mandatory of me. I feel like I’m losing contact with [...]

[thank God that’s over]

Hi. It’s been a while. I don’t like posting after holidays, I’ve decided. Particularly after the new year.
The feeling of being dumped is probably one of the worst experiences in the world. You see the inevitable signs, usually starting out with your significant other not wanting to initiate physical touch and [...]

[i’m sorry, i don’t understand a word you just said]

So on my trip, in between the free drinks and bright lights, I did a significant amount of people watching. Trophy wives who hardly speak English seem to be all the rage still. I’ve always said I don’t really understand people and that still stands true today. Though, to be entirely fair, [...]
