Edit: I wrote this in bed last night but my blackberry was acting up.
-reasons I love being a freelance: I can lay in bed, in my pajamas, and write. I can watch a movie and write. I can sleep in on Monday mornings. When I have insomnia, I can get a little work done. This [...]

quiet swimless day

I wasn’t scheduled to sub today.  I got a phone call around 7:30am asking me to sub in the preschool, which I turned down because, frankly, I don’t relish the idea of chasing three and four year olds all day.  As many times as I’ve been asked to sub for the preschool, though, I’m starting [...]

daily digest, 10-2-08

I know no one likes bullet points, but they’re just so easy!
I am tired.  Super tired.  Unless for some reason I bounce out of bed at 7am rested and refreshed, I am not going to swim.  I am going to sleep instead.
My car is done, FINALLY!!!  They had originally predicted that it would take about [...]

my love/hate daytime relationship

I have this thing.  This really strange love/hate relationship.  It’s a love/hate relationship between myself and my mornings or evenings.
I love mornings.  I wake up and everything seems so perfect.  It’s the time when nothing has happened to spoil the day yet.  The morning is so full of promise, the future of what wonderful things [...]

random insomniac Wikipedia discovery

I find strange things when it’s late and I’m awake.  I found this a couple of nights ago, and saved it to share.
In Vietnam, a man named Thai Ngoc is presumably a record breaking insomniac.
This man is most famous for his claim of being awake for 35 years.  However, he refuses to leave his village [...]

arachnophobia

I think I am developing full blown arachnophobia.
That’s “fear of spiders”, for all of you out there who need to brush up on your Latin.
Some of you may recall my experience with insomnia and spiders a few days ago.  It was very strange and VERY frightening.  I concluded that the spider in that [...]

insomnia and spiders

Warning: Moderately icky post.  Read at your own risk.
Last night, I couldn’t sleep.  I lay in bed, wide awake, wondering why I was awake, and quietly praying, “Lord, I HAVE to get some sleep!” because I have a doctor’s appointment this afternoon, and of course I wanted to be somewhat awake.  But no matter what [...]

random infomercial #1

When I am awake late at night (like tonight) there is nothing on TV except infomercials.  I don’t have cable so… there’s no reruns or classic tv or anything, just infomercials.  Luckily I find these infomercials somewhat amusing.
Tonight, Kevin Trudeau, author, natural foods advocate, and convicted felon, wants to sell you his new book, “Debt [...]
