Who Needs Sleep?

So, I try to make it to bed by 11pm (especially since I get up between 4:30am-5:30am for work), but keyword there is "try". Lately, it seems like I have been doing good to make it to bed by 1am! Most of the time I am playing too much and that is the reason for the lack of sleep, so don't feel sorry for me. Anyway, here are some things that contribute to my exciting life or sleepless nights...depends on how you want to look at it!

On Friday, 18th of July, we went to the new Batman show. Well, the movie didn't start until 10:10pm and it is a three hour show, so needless to say I didn't get home until after 1am. The show definitely has some amazing acting and it was very well done, but overall it was not my favorite. There was way to much death and destruction for my liking, but you should go see it and form your own opinion.

The next night, July 19th, I participated in the Moonlight Classic which is a bike ride through Downtown Denver. The fundraiser didn't start until 10:30pm and it is a 15 mile bike ride. It was a lot of fun and was such a beautiful evening for a bike ride. I got home at 3am.

Every Tuesday I meet up with some friends to play tennis. We have a great time and I should probably be grateful that the lights shut off at 11pm, otherwise I would probably be there all night! I get home around 11:30pm on the nights I play tennis.

Wednesday, July 23rd, I met up with my friend's David and Lisa and we played scrabble well into the evening. It was fun, even though I did lose two of the three games! I didn't get home until after 10:30pm.

Thursday evenings means there is a soccer game. On one occasion we had a game that did not even start until 9pm, so on that night I did not get home until after 10:30pm. This past Thursday, our game was at 8pm, so I got home around 9:30ish. Nice, I can finally get some sleep, right? No, no... I was hosting a party at my place the next day and needed to use that time getting my apartment prepped. Oh, and during my soccer game that night I hurt my foot. Yeah, I went up for a header and came down on my foot wrong. I didn't hurt my ankle, but it is the top part which allows you to flex your foot. So, I finally made it to bed by midnight, but lets just say my foot hurt so bad that I wanted to cry! After laying there for a good hour and a half I got up, hobbled over to the medicine cabinet and took some Tylenol. I finally fell asleep around 2:30am- just in time to get up in 3 hours! So Friday, my boss made me go to the doctor against my wishes. Well, come to find out I have a severe contusion and my foot is not broken, fractured, etc. It hurts, but at least it should heal fast.

So, Friday, 25 July I hosted a party at my place. It was a great success and a lot of fun. People played the wii, scattegories, nertz, rook, sat and visited and eat goodies. There were 32+ people that came throughout the night and the party continued until 3:00am! Time flies when you are having fun!

So, that is my crazy life- I love it! Sometimes it would be nice to get more sleep, but look at all the memories I would miss out on if I did!

Before I say goodnight, let me say a big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Miss Emmeline! Hope you have a fabulous day tomorrow!

Okay, now I can go to bed. Love you all. Goodnight!
