Insomniac Blues

Sleep mocks me.

I want sleep. I love sleep. I need sleep. Sleep won't return my phone calls. It's with some other girl right now, I know it!

Since sleep is out catting around, I go to my mistress, the internet, to keep me company.

Friday I came home and made it into my pajamas and sacked out on my bed telling myself that this time, I *was* going to finish watching Riding Giants. Then 20 minutes into it when I was learning about tow-in surfing, the phone rang. It was Angie. She wanted me to come over, and I always do what she says. (y'all, she's short, but she's *bossy*)

We went to El Tap and there were entirely too many teenagers there and all of them got on my nerves. Some were drinking, which I guess means I've gotten really shitty at figuring out how old people are. I had one margarita, and with the stress from work, the lack of sleep (and gallbladder) I was one tipsy bitch. Angie and I got back to her house and watched part of a movie (House) we've both seen many times, but couldn't remember anything about. Then we watched Dateline NBC.

Party. Animals.

Dateline NBC (or was it 20/20?) was about this con man in Texas that married, dated, and/or impregnanted about 10 girls. They interviewed some of the girls, and they met for the first time, then they interviewed him from jail. It was pretty rad. I think I even said "oh SNAP!" But it led to this conversation:

Angie: I'm *never* getting married again.

Me: Hope not.

Angie: I mean, if I was to ever be single again.. I'd never get married, I'd just shack up.

Me: I'm never getting married again.

Angie: You will too.

Me: No, I won't. I'm telling you, I don't have it in me to go through all that.

Angie: You could one day!

(don't you love how she just said she would never, but then wants ME to?)

Me: Who the hell am I gonna marry? Who?

Angie: Bon Jovi.

Me: Bon Jovi is already married.

Angie: SO? He could get a divorce!

Me: Why in the *hell* did you say Bon Jovi anyway?

Angie: I opened my mouth, and that's what came out.

Me: You need to give that shit more thought. Though I *could* invite Richie Sambora over for dinner

Angie: You so could.

Me: I'd be like "Richie, tell me this, why did you divorce Heather Locklear? You ain't getting better looking, my friend"

Angie: He didn't start out that good looking.

Me: I heard he's dating that chick, is it Denise Richards? And she's supposed to be Heather's best friend.

Angie: I know! Bitch.

Me: You'd better not date Bon Jovi if I divorce him.

Angie: I would NEVER do that.

Me: Yeah, but he'd be all "But I'm Bon Jovi!"

Angie: I'd say "I can't do that to her, she is my best friend!"

Me: And he'd just say "I do not think you heard me, madam, I am BON JOVI"

Angie: Yeah.. okay maybe I would.

Me: Triflin' bitch.

From 'Metamorphoses', by Ovid:

To whom the Goddess thus: O sacred rest,
Sweet pleasing sleep, of all the Pow'rs the best!
O peace of mind, repairer of decay,
Whose balms renew the limbs to labours of the day,
Care shuns thy soft approach, and sullen flies away!

You quoted poetry on my blog about silliness and Bon Jovi.

I'm in love with you.

That's nothing. I'm a lyricologist. I can rap about anything.

Shrink, shrink. Blinkity-blink.
Tried to make me think.
Wanna go to my sink.
And vomit.
Clean it up wit' Comet.
Earth is my plahnet.

See? I'm the shiznit.
