NoSleepaPoolaza 2008
- January 6th, 2008 5:11 pm
Someone in this household, I won’t mention any names, decided to stage a coup d’etat last night. Yes, a certain redhead decided to forgo any household rules regarding sleeping habits by awakening from sleep at 10 pm and not returning to such a state until 4 a.m.
Apparently, the unidentified suspect was apparently under the impression that while she was sleeping her parents slipped off to do exotic things like drink the tears of a unicorn or play hopscotch with the Queen of England. I MUST STOP THIS, she thought.
Ultimately, said suspect has left her parents (and herself) tired and grumpy.
During, Nosleepapoolaza 2008, I managed to trip and bust my butt on our hardwood floors at least three times. Since I like for others to laugh at me just as much as I laugh at myself, I will document the best of the falls:
I walk out of our bathroom and slip on a pair of socks someone (the male in our home) decided to discard in the middle of the floor.
I caught myself from that fall, because as a clumsy person, I am familiar with such incidents.
After catching myself, I proceed to hop to my bed, but ultimately end up tripping AGAIN over the shoes the male someone also left in the middle of the floor.
I did not recover as well from this slip.
It ended with me busting my butt on the floor (HARD), and yelling various swears at Adam (lots of ‘em, i promise).
NoSleepaPoolaza 2008 has left me tired, grumpy, and bruised. Amuse me world wide web, amuse me.

i do stuff like that all the time! especially walk into walls/corners & such.

I’m laughing my ass off, not at you, but because we have had many encore performances of NoSleepaPoolaza over here. And are you trying to tell me that you don’t drink unicorn tears or hang with the Queen while your daughter is asleep? I just don’t buy it.
Oops, gotta go. That’ll be the Queen at the door.

Are you kidding me? You don’t need just humans to do this. My dogs leave things in the middle of the floor that I trip over as well as waking me up in the middle of the night but nothing beats the episode of me falling out of bed from a water bug in the middle of the night.

This may sound callous… But it’s always nice to hear that someone else out there is as clumsy as me! LOL. The line about you catching yourself because you’re familiar with such incidents could have come out of my auto-biography.
I hope that you get some sleep soon, honey!!

I’ve been holding my own NoSleepaPalooza since July of 2007. I can count on one hand how many times my 5-month-old has slept through the night!! Although, I do not envy your being up for that long . . . that bites!
