Tired!

A no D post huh?  OK.....I am tired.  I used to be an EMT with a the Virginia Beach Rescue Squad and I pulled 12 hour over night shifts every Wednesday and still went to work the next day.  I have been tired before.  Do you want to know the difference.  I can't catch up now.  They say that you can't catch up on sleep.  They say that if you miss sleep for a long period of time, a long sleep period will make things worse.  I think they are lying.  I think that if I could sleep for 16 hours of uninterrupted, un-worrisome sleep, I would be great. 

I fell asleep reading a book to my four year old the other night.  How is that fair to him.  He deserves to have his Dad be there 100% and alert!  The other day, I dozed off sitting in a parking lot on my way to my next school.  I wonder why I am so tired all the time.  Well, whatever it is, I don't want to talk about it today.  I am taking the day off from being tired.  I see mad amounts of coffee in my future.
