Insomnia

Make it go away.  I’ve learned that sleeping is a very important life function.  If you don’t sleep, it messes up your brain and your body, and you feel awful.  I’ve always been able to sleep whenever I wanted.  If I wanted to take a nap, I could just lay down and snooze.  Now, it takes me hours and hours and hours of actively working at it, just to get a few hours of sleep.  It’s soooooo frustrating.  Nothing over the counter works - not Benadryl, not night-time sleepy meds, nothing.  Arrrggghhh.  Although, I’ve gotten lots of middle of the night movie watching in.  Just finished watching “Ae Fond Kiss”, about a British Pakistani Muslim guy dating a non-Pakistani woman.  Oh, the Muslim family drama, because he’s supposed to marry his, ICK!, cousin.  The guy is really cute.  The woman is from the cute romantic comedy, “Imagine Me and You”, with Piper Perabo, Lena Headey, and Matthew Goode.  I loved that movie.  I’ve always loved the Turtles song, “Happy Together”, so it was nice to have it be the theme song of the movie.  So, I now have three official recommendations for you - “Ae Fond Kiss”, “Imagine Me and You”, and “Inception”.  The first two are on dvd now and “Inception” will be out in a week or so.  You know what would be nice, though, if I could sleep AND enjoy movies.  I don’t want to pick between them.
