I'm dead on my feet. I'd make a reference to zombies or vampires, but today I tweeted about vampires in the sun and my lovely friends tweeted me back about sparkling.
NO NOT SPARKLING. JEEZ. Thank you Stephanie Meyer for making sure that is no longer an acceptable analogy for pain and destruction. Freakin' sparkling. Then again... "sparkling" could be the new term for "in great pain."
"I stubbed my toe and I was sparkling, yo."
You're welcome.
So, you know that thing where you are so sleepy, your head starts to roll? Like where you nap for 1 second? I can't remember driving home, but I do remember yelling at myself to stay awake, as my head fell and twisted. Isn't that one of the worst feelings ever? Your body telling you you need to sleep RIGHT NOW and your mind fighting against it. Plus, no one looks good while sleepy head rolling. No one.
Not that looking good is my main concern. I'm mostly glad that I made it home in one piece and I'm silently hoping that no red lights were ran and that no small, furry animals were maimed.
All of this exhaustion is brought to you courtesy of Mickey Mouse. That's kind of a weird thing to say in retrospect. It could be slightly dirty, or I might be so exhausted I'm imagining sexual innuendo.
What I meant to say was that I spent the weekend with family at Disney World. There are stories to tell but at the moment, I think humanity would be safer if I just fell asleep. I forced myself to write this post first, though, for a few reasons: so you know that I'm not dead, so you can say, "OMG that head rolling thing does suck," so that you can be a little jealous that I was at Disney World and because I was curious what sort of post I would end up with while typing with one eye closed.
My conclusion is that this post is sparkling.
I'll be back when I can keep both eyes open.
Promise.

I'm totally going to use that phrase now. "I stubbed my toe and it's sparkling."
I'll say ditto haha
Now, see, if you'd been less tired, you would have seen the inherent risks in mentioning vampires before you did so. And then we wouldn't have been able to torment you. And then you wouldn't have been able to come up with "sparkling = in great pain". So really, it was all for the best!
And yes, the head rolling thing really sucks. Except when my dad's the one doing it, and then it's just kind of funny...
I miss your face <3
Mickey Mouse as innuendo? Pretty sure that one was your imagination, Lor. (unless you're really pervy!)
I was doing the head-rolling thing in class today. Not so good when the prof sees you. Also not so good when it's your last class of the semester.
And can I just say that sparkling vampires scare me? So I think making "sparkling" meaning pain is perfect. Vampires suck blood and kill people. That's scary enough without making them MORE attention grabbing. "Oooh, there's screaming I think I'll go see what happening in the courtyard... what's that? Something SHINY AND SPARKLY! I MUST GO SEE WH-" and then the person dies.
First of all, if you die on seven minute drive home, I am having a fight with whatever is left of you!
The pictures looked great, you have amazing legs--they sparkle.
Can't wait to hear all about it
:)
hope you feel better after getting some rest, glad you made it hope safely. :) Im pretty jealous of Disney world and I am amused at how you have decided to use the word sparkling. :)
Any time you need me to ruin anything with Twilight I'll gladly do it.
"OMG that head rolling thing does suck"
I am very, very familiar with the horror of that head rolling thing while driving. It's rough.
I'm sparkling for more....about you and Micky.
e.f.b.
Awesome! You should go to Legoland too. My parents went last week and sent pictures... which is awesome since it's completely aimed at kids and they probably looked like two crazy old loonies..
You are funny when you're sleepy! That head rolling is so horrible when it happens, especially at work... =(
It'll be awesome to use in exclamation too! Totally clean and safe for the office.
::paper cut::
HOLY SPARKLES.
OMG, I can't imagine it happened in front of students! Or watching students do it. I'd be upset with them, but then again, who can help head rolling? It's beyond our control.
Dude, I've been to Legoland. It doesn't even matter how old you are because it. is. awesome. I may have pushed a little kid out of the way to get some legos to fill up a bucket. *ahem*
I hate to keep you sparkling, but I kind of like it.
How much do you miss your car though? I only met her once and I miss her. :)
It's like a hidden talent you have. Swoop in and BAM- Twilight ruin. I wonder if you can put that on a resume?
I'm better now. Still a little tired, but the head rolling has thankfully gone away.
OH STOP IT. You compliments make me sparkle.
Also, you have my permission to yell at what ever is left of me. Seven minute drive is not a way to go.
I never thought about sparkling as smart, but OMG. What a way to attract pray! Everyone likes shiny things.
I am not! :(
I'm glad you think tormenting me is for the best. ;)
It is kind of funny when other people do it. I mean, in an evil way.
I miss your face too <3
OMGSOMUCH. That's how much. Or, that's just a fraction of how much. Missouri gets really weird winter weather in that it's mostly cold and we get the snow and all of that, but we also get these freak warm days where it'll be like mid 60's - low 70's. I reallyreallyreally hope I get at least one of those days while I'm home.
Okay, but didn't you once read into pretty much everything you heard at the dentist's office? Just sayin'.
I can't wait to visit my parents and go...
AND I'm excited to see them too... of course... yeah...
Am I a bad son?
ESPECIALLY girls. Something about light dancing around makes us lose our ish. Why though? It's just LIGHT. seriously.
Except not, because I love glitter and sparkles.
You know what's impressive? While fighting exhaustion and typing with one eye closed, you have demonstrated more writing talent than Stephenie Meyer. Oh! Oh! Burn! But seriously, she ruined basically everything that was cool about vampires and werewolves. If she ever writes a book about zombies it will be a crime against humanity.
