I can't sleep.
The sheep are nowhere to be found.
I think they're on a Serta commercial.
Yeah, it's a poem. No not really. I typed the first sentence and it wanted to become a poem. But it just wasn't in the cards. And it doesn't help that I can't write poems either way. I'm surprised anyone reads this junk I write.
What these sheep don't realize is that there are still plenty of people who don't have a Serta mattress who are in dire need of their services. I'm even willing to pay them, if only they'll jump over my bed in order. I knew sheep were dumb, but come on. Choose your battles. Leave Serta alone and come entertain me.
Now that one isn't a poem. It's more of a rant at the sheep. My sanity is beginning to deteriorate.
I slept for like 3 hours and then woke up abruptly. Now that's frustrating. Usually after I fall asleep, I can stay asleep. I don't know what the deal is here. I feel pretty tired, but when I close my eyes, pieces of a song keep spinning through my head and just dare me to try and fall asleep. Ironically the song is "Need some sleep" by The Eels. I just barely looked it up. The only place I've ever heard it is on Shrek. And I haven't seen that movie in a long time. I don't know why it chose to taunt me tonight.
I guess here is where I analyze myself or something. I don't know how this trend started. That one didn't work the sheep in. Maybe I'm giving up on them. I guess we'll just have to read on.
This post is becoming my two personalities fighting in writing. I wish at least one of them would go to sleep. That last sentence was almost written from the point of view of a third personality. Oh great. Now I'm in for it.
At this point I'm not sure if I'm on the writing part or the analyzing part, or why that even started. The point is, we're all going to bed. Rather, we're going to try and sleep. Since I'm already in bed.
Wow, I've really lost it.

sleep deprived insanity

Having people arguing in your head isn't such a bad thing, I promise. Ayliel and Maylene are always being snide to each other, and Suhayda and Ayliel sometimes get snarky with each other. Anyway, point is, I have people arguing up there all the time, but sometimes I'd venture to say that it's what keeps me sane, instead of a red flag for insanity.
it's true. i always see at least two sides to things, and there's a lot of controversy going on. sometimes when more than three come into play i start counting, but that leads me into circles and overlapping personalities. i think it's healthy to have a good bit of debate in your head. makes you think twice before acting. plus, if it goes awry, you can always blame the other half.
