Sleep, where art thou? June 12, 2008

So it’s 6:30am on Thursday. You may ask why I am awake at such an early hour considering my class isn’t until noon. That would be because I layed in bed from 12:30 to 6:00, tossing and turning. After five and a half hours of this I realized sleep was not going to come, so I got up and have been checking out various websites. I probably won’t end up going to class now, because eventually exhaustion will set in and I will sleep. Hopefully sooner than later. This lovely upper respiratory infection (aka…a dumb cold) seems to be getting worse not better. I was ok at community groups until we were leaving, and then all of the sudden I got this horrible pain in my ears (Karen can vouch for me, I was whining for a good hour) . I’m still waiting for it to go away.

I did manage to have some fun last night despite feeling like crap and my ears being “stuffed up” and not being able to hear anyone talking at a normal level. Good thing Karen talks loud She had to tell me what people were saying half the night, lol. I’m not sure exactly why, but all of our get togethers lately have turned into ridiculous dance parties (which I have yet to take part in due to said cold)! Oh, and I can’t forget karaoke! Good times

We had some really great discussion (even though I didn’t get my reading done, shame on me) about John 6-10. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve read John before, but it’s coming alive to me now, and I’m seeing how it applies to my life. It’s pretty much incredible. I love going to community groups and hearing how certain verses affected people and how they view them. It makes want to keep reading! I would write more about this, but I don’t think I can do what I am thinking any justice due to no sleep.

On another note, I did get watch So You Think You Can Dance last night. It was the first night of actual routines, and there were several really impressive dances. I of course loved the new Mia Michaels contemporary, she always choreographs the most beautiful dances. But my favorite dance of the night was choreographed by Tabitha and Napoleon and danced by Joshua and Katee. It was to No Air by Jordin Sparks, and the story behind it was a girl finding out her man is leaving for the military. Even though it was hip hop, it was ridiculously heart wrenching! Of course I have to post the video for you to watch

If you haven’t watched the show, I would strongly recommend it (if I haven’t already in my blogs)!!! It’s on Fox, Wednesdays 8-10. Be cool and watch it! Ha ha!

The sun is starting to rise now, hopefully I can fall asleep soon. I hope you all had a lovely sleep…

What day is it?!? June 4, 2008

Oh lordy. It’s been a very long time since I’ve blogged. This is mostly because I have been going going going nonstop lately, and partly because I’ve been dealing with some stuff and knew if I blogged I would spill it all, which I don’t care to do.

I guess all of the craziness of my life finally hit me today. I spent the evening at home with nothing to do, which was refreshing! Not to say that I don’t love hanging out with friends and such, but I needed a night to chill. Apparently at some point in the afternoon I fell asleep, because I woke up around 8:30 completely disoriented. I freaked out for several minutes because I thought that I had slept through the night and it was Wednesday morning and that I was going to be late for class. After about ten minutes of spazzing out and trying to get all of my stuff for class, I realized that it was in fact still Tuesday evening. I had only slept for like four hours. Once I realized how ridiculous I must have looked jumping out of bed and running around my room like a crazy person, I started cracking up (to myself, because no one else was home, which probably also looked crazy).

So after that fiasco I started working on a playlist for Mom’s wedding reception. I have like 68 songs already and a list of about 50 more I want to download, and she hasn’t even sent me her list yet. I want it to be awesome, and I want people to DANCE! I hate receptions where the music is horribly lame and no one is on the dance floor. Mom’s wedding is outside, so they had to rent a dance floor, so people will dance ha ha! I’m getting excited! Yes, I still have like a zillion things to do. I have to finish the music, order the flowers, make the bouquets and arrangements, write a speech, figure out how I’m going to do my hair now that I cut it all off , and stop feeling lame for not having a date for my own Mother’s wedding. I have a week! I can’t even make the flower arrangements until I get to Jacksonville next Friday (the wedding is Saturday! Talk about last minute!) so I can’t worry about that yet, and I’ll have to get over the date thing seeing as I can’t change that (although I was proposed to last night, but it was only hypothetical) I’ll just make my brother dance with me, cause that’s not lame at all, lol. Oh well.

We are still on the hunt for a house. I’m thinking we should just wait a week or two to start looking since everyone wants tenants to move in now. Barry and Kayleigh helped us look on Sunday, which was super helpful, especially since the rest of us are so burnt out. Thanks guys! I did get a call back from one lady that sounds promising.

There’s a bunch of things I could write about, but my mind is so hazy right now that it wouldn’t make a bit of sense anyway. I think I’ll just go to bed. This time when I wake it up it will really be Wednesday morning (I still can’t believe myself) Goodnight bloggers
