Natural Claritin

I haven't slept in four days. Four. Whole. Days. You know what you can do with all 24 hours in a day? A lot actually, most of it completely unproductive, but still a lot of shit.

See, I play this game constantly, but the game isn't what keeps me awake; I just simple cannot sleep. I laid down on Tuesday and ended up staring at my ceiling for 3 hours while listening to Wolf Parade play on repeat. Wednesday morning, before my Embedded Systems class, I watched almost an entire season of "Dead Like Me". By the way, great fuckin' show but that's another time. Thursday morning, I finished my "Dead Like Me" mini marathon and then studied for an Economics test, which is going to royally blow penis AND balls. I don't think I need to remind anyone that it's never good when balls are involved...most of the time.

So, the question is, "Why can't I sleep anymore?" Believe you me, I've asked myself this question again and again. It kind of reminds of the movie "Cash Back" (also one of the greatest movies I've ever seen). I won't go into details, but the main character has chronic insomnia; one can relate. I do think about a lot of things during the day, but my head is generally clear at night as keeping things on your mind at night can lead to insomnia. So with my head clear and a good dinner with drinks in me, why have I not slept since last Sunday afternoon?
