I can't think of a Suitable Title

Phew. Today was hard work. Mainly due to me being denied entry into club SLEEP by Insomnia who was apparently doorman for the evening. Every time my weary little soul ventured entry, I a received a slap about the face and told ‘No trainers’

At which I protested that they were smart, before realised two things. A: I’m in bed, attempting to sleep and not wearing any trainers – and B: this in my head therefore I can go where I please. My arguments fell on deaf ears, and resulted only in me receiving another slap about the chops; and doubting my own sanity.

I think I eventually managed around 5 hours sleep, not good. Especially when I had to be in the office (on a Bank holiday! – Although I did offer, doh!) for 8am.

Worse still, today was beautifully hot and there was no breeze; which only fuelled the dazed, fidgety and irritable mood that embroiled me (Like reeds on the riverbed, which snare unobservant swimmers and drag them to their watery graves). What a charming image I have thrown at you, no need to thank me. It’s all part of the service.

Thankfully I managed to remain pretty upbeat, if a little distant; and cheered up note ably when my housemate returned home with a new means in which to procrastinate. A nintendo wii - Something I had managed to resist buying up until now, knowing that I would quickly become addicted and spend even less time do the productive things I sometimes think about doing.

I was right. It’s fun, I’m addicted - Goddamit. At least when I now go to visit any of my friends who already have a wii, I won’t be spanked so hard on wii Tennis. Being Captain uber-competitive, I hate losing. But losing wii tennis hurts more than usual, because I can play tennis quite well and those pesky little urchins won’t play me for real!

It is 11:10pm at the time of writing this entry, and I do not feel the least bit tired. Still, I am hoping that if I force myself to bed now I’ll doze off. The last thing I need now is another attack of insomnia! …Perhaps another round of wii boxing will tire me out. Lets go see.

Au revoir.

I'm glad other people have arguments with themselves, too.
