![]() Insomniac?A Story by Rose TylerFor the first time in her life that she can remember, she managed to pull an all-nighter. At 11 the previous night she called out to her friend, "I won't go to sleep too late, I promise!" Well, she didn't exactly break her promise... She hasn't even gone to sleep yet and it's too early in the mornig to consider it 'nighttime' anymore. She looks over at the clock. Its digital face reads 5:20 AM. Sigh. Why couldn't I get to sleep last night? Why didn't I even feel the slightest bit tired through this whole time? She walked around the house, stretching out her sore muscles from sitting on the couch all night. Returning to her origional supposed "resting place", she opens up the laptop, types in the password and gets online. She's had nothing better to do and never did the thought of sleep even cross her mind. She knew she would be dead dog tierd later, but she dared not think of that right then. After writing a few poems and finishing a chapter, she paused and thought about her situation. Well... I guess I could look at this as an accomplishment - I've always wanted to pull an all nighter! But... I've always wanted to do it with a group of friends. This bites. She tried every way possible to get to sleep - count sheep, lay there with her eyes closed. Nothing seemed to be working so she just gave up on even trying to catch the sandman that night. © 2010 Rose TylerAuthor's Note
