what a solid sleep will do for you

bonjour blog!

 On monday I couldn't quite get into the swing of things.  I finished up an essay, did some loose ends for the rest of my classes and then called it quits. I was in bed by 9.  Yesterday (Tuesday) I couldn't get in the swing of anything - at all.  breathing was ahuge task.  I had a drs appt and then I just did stuff - nothing that would cause me any kind of brain usage. besides the general feeling of being sick i had some kind of metal taste in my mouth.  yuck!

i hit the sack again by 9p and wouldn't ya know it? i slept so DEEPLY all night long - from 9ish to 7.  I usually get around 6hours of sleep a night but until last night, being sick  :::deep sigh:::  i had forgotten what a deep, restful sleep felt like.  i ended up going back to bed this morning when i got little S to school but it felt good.  and apparently i needed it or my bed wouldn't have called so loudly.

funky-ass dreams when you're either sick, sleeping deeply or both.  so vivid - like i was standing there, no one could see me (if only) and i'm watching this film of these events go by. to me, they were in slow motion (like the dream with the boy with long red hair just bouncing and flowing like a shampoo commercial) but they also seemed so fast. and now that i think about it - last night must have been a hair night - i also dreamt about long, dark hair and getting lost in it. i think it was a guy cuz the hair holder was taller than me but it wasn't sexual at all. it felt like - safe? then i dreamt about my bed in the second hotel in vegas. i think the excalibur is first and then the venetian. i'll get one night in the venetian since i'm leaving friday but the bed.  i think i did a fabric softener commercial that time.  i flopped down on the bed and it swallowed me up.  it did feel strange - like the bed was trying to hold me down but when i struggled, it let me up.  then i laid down onit again and it was ok.

i must be having issues with going to vegas alone. hmmm...odd.  i like being alone so that's kinda strange.  i am having issues with being 2,500 miles away from home with $300.  if i'm lucky it'll be $300. my father is paying for lodging and food and one night at a play but the rest is on me.  i've been googling around for things to do for free while in vegas and i've found some things.  afew museums, a titanic exhibit ($25) and a CSI experience ($30?) but i have to bring home souvenirs. i can't go to las vegas and not bring the kiddos home something. anything.  i don't mind walking around for four days, and i have school work to do but yikes.  couldn't just ONE person need a damn floor done? gah!

and can i just say that plastic gets a bad rap - or wrap!  lolol  oh, i crack myself up.  i use glass as much as i can, i try not to store anything in plastic, put plastic in the mirowave, i recycle nearly every dang thing but there are times when you need plastic.  would you put a glass shampoo bottle in the shower? no.  do you have any idea how many time the shampoo gets dropped. imagine the blood and leaking guts if you dropped glass in the shower. and you were alone.  not pretty.

well, i guess i'll post this meaningless pile of hoo-ha and try to catch up on my work. only 2.5hours before kids get home and i'm a day and a half behind on school work. i'll just have to get back into my midnight - one am bedtime routine and catch up.  but i need a microphone for the argumentative essay. and microsoft(?) to do the voice part.  eh - wtf? who cares. i'll get to that when i get to it.  

til then - where's my iced tea/sugar free lemonade concoction? ......
