Lose ALL the sleep!

It's no secret that I am an over-thinker. That fan letter I wrote in December? It was returned to me because I had the wrong zip code. I intended to just fix the recipient address and send it right back on it's way. Yet, it still sits in my car 4 weeks later... not due to laziness either. In my nightly conversation with Ace I told her that I might rewrite it. "What! I like it!" "It seems so ridiculous. It makes me feel like I'm 12." "What! You're over thinking it!" Why yes, yes I am. This led to discussion of how my brain likes to race around at night.

When I can't sleep I like to play music to soothe myself. My current song is We Are Young by Fun. I used to listen to The Format (Nate Ruess is the lead singer in both bands) to go to sleep in middle school. So the song helps me fall asleep. Even when there is ice crashing against my window at all hours of the night. It finally occurred to me to play the song as loud as I could on repeat at about 4:30 am.
