Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Hooray! Alt.buffista.net foils the work filter--and I must make sure not to abuse it so that doesn't get taken away.
I generally wake up at about 4:54 AM, but I think that's because someone on my street goes by at that hour, and they probably have a noisy vehicle. It's kind of nice, actually--in a non-insomniac way--to see that time and think "I have 3 more hours of sleep, yay."

Only if you haven't seen her for two weeks! Which is a good excuse for dropping by every week....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

perfect murder
Hit your husband over the head with a frozen leg of lamb. Cook lamb and feed to detectives.

A few weeks into chemo I started falling asleep early and staying asleep. Those six months were the only time I haven't had insomnia in 30 years. I have idiosyncratic reactions to most drugs, so every antidepressant keeps me awake, as does codeine. Ambien, blessedly, works, but I got a new prescription last week that was clearly a different generic, and I've been falling asleep but waking up every couple of hours. Usually I fall back asleep, but sometimes my mind wanders to the complete suckitude my life is at the moment and then I'm wide awake.
I use the alphabet to fall asleep.

That's almost as scary as playing against her and her brother in Taboo.

I'm here all week.
Also, even funnier in person, people should come visit. I promise not to kill.

the perfect murder
Every time I see that phrase, I think of Leopold and Loeb, who would have gotten away with killing Bobby Franks if Leopold hadn't dropped his glasses at the dump site. Turns out the nosepiece on his specs were a brand new product and only on three pairs of glasses in the Chicago area at that time.
