Ever have one of those night were you just don't want to sleep?! I feel like an idiot when they hit. I'm tired as fuck but I just can't bring myself to let my head hit the pillow. I know as soon as I do I'll be out like a light. Off to dreamland, which is usually quite pleasant (except last night when I dreamt I was conducting covert ops into Russia to assassinate a mime with access to top secret Pentagon X-projects). Damn Army.

It's strange. I feel as if I'll miss something huge and exciting if I go to sleep. What? I don't exactly know. But always get that oddball feeling whenever I'm tired, particularly on a weekend when I don't have a 5 a.m. formation in the morning to start working sick call.

So what do I do in these instances? Dick around on the internet, listen to music or a comedy show, really anything to get my mind off of the fact that I've gone five days without a decent night's sleep.

Fuck it, sleep is a crutch. Who needs it?

Insomnia drives a man to do strange things. Example: eating Smart Start cereal with Smirnoff instead of milk. A side of chicken nuggets with spicy marinara sauce and Cheese Whizz....mini-Ritz with the peanut butter in the middle.

I think I've lost my mind. Or I'm pregnant. Seeing as I still have my wits and a little bit of sense about me I'll stick with the first option.

You won Sandman, you little bastard you. I'm totally kicking your ass tomorrow night.
