here's the buzz on the street...wait, with me

Yes, my friends... it's that time again. The time where time actually seems to stand still, and yet, race ahead, unknowingly taking me with it. The time where hours seem to take days, and yet take only 60 minutes at a time. The time... where my body is buzzing. Not because of too much to drink or eat or something retarded like that.... because I'm really really tired. So, now, when I get into the bed... not only am I so tired that I don't want to move to pull the blanket over me, but my body's got this buzzing thing going on where it's like... "I stopped wanting to move hours ago, stupid. Stop making me work without sleep!" And then I go, "I'm too tired to argue with you. We only have like 6 hours if you fall asleep right now before we have to go work another 12 hour shift... so shh." And then, sometimes I fall asleep. Sometimes I watch the hours pass as my brain shifts through all the things I have to do in the next 48 hours. And sometimes... well, I don't have another "sometime" so I'm going to go leave to catch my bus.

But tomorrow morning... I'll be asleep still... because I asked for tomorrow off. I'm working the weekend... but Friday. Beautiful day of all days... I think I'll get closer to 8 hours of sleep. Mmm... hush little buzz, we've got to go to work now.
