Why I am STUPID #2.

And my husband.

Every morning, we wake up exhausted and regretting how late we stayed up the night before. We whine and complain about our poor choices in regards to sleep. We go about our day yawning and trying not to nod off during conversations with various people, lectures and phone conversations.

At 1800hrs we start bedtime routine with our children. We are adamant about their routine, they NEED THEIR SLEEP. By 1930 they're usually both in bed. Sometimes Thumbelina is a little later but for the most part we get them to bed on time.

We finally get them asleep and then collapse on to the couch. Dinner? Yes, dinner. Maybe a little Netflix? Sure. An episode re-run of 3rd Rock might be nice.

15 episodes later [gross exaggeration] we realise it's 0100hrs and we have to be awake in three hours with Skippy. Oh.joy.
We look at each other wondering why we're so dumb, vowing to be smarter the following night.

It never happens. *sigh*

I guess we'll sleep when they're older.

Why I am STUPID.

I would just like to take this moment to say - there are plenty of things that I do well. This post does not contain those things. This is my attempt to shed light on my own stupidity in a way that may help me feel less like a complete moron. Ooookkaaaayyyy.

So, first - a certain friend *coughRYANcough* recommended a certain movie to me [Megan Is Missing]. It's a snuff-TYPE/horror flick and because I am a glutton for punishment *also read, STUPID* I watched it.
Yes. I, Sara, who has the most horrific nightmares anyone could ever imagine possible, intentionally watched a movie that would scare me beyond all reasonable belief and further ensure that I may never sleep again. SCORE.


Second, it is 1 o'clock in the morning. Church starts at 0900. We have to be there by 0830. Which means that I have to be up by 0700. At least. John will likely wake up to eat around 0500-0600.
So, what am I doing? Not even trying to sleep. Thaaaaat's right. I'm awake. Playing stupid Facebook games, chatting with an old friend who is SO drunk that when they see our conversation tomorrow they will be thinking 'OMG!! I SAID that?!' and writing about being stupid. There.are.no.words.

Third, When I went to the grocery story the day before yesterday [I don't know what day that was, I'm that tired.] the lady at the register before I left said "Enjoy your new ___" [I don't remember what that was, either.] and do you know what I said? 'You too!!'
Shoot me now. SERIOUSLY?! It just goes to show you how little I think before I speak. But then, if you've spent any amount of time with me at all you have experienced THAT firsthand. Lucky you.

Also, the fact that I am STILL here typing this. GO.TO.BED.

I think I shall.

Night night!
