Letters in my bed Er, I mean head.

If I could recoup the hours of sleep I have lost over writing letters in my head at night, I wholeheartedly believe I would never feel sleep deprived again! 

For years now I have found myself writing letters in my head when I lay down to sleep at night.  The problem is that because I am not actually putting pen to paper or fingers to a keyboard, and actually getting my thoughts out, I find myself writing, rewriting, and REwriting these letters in my head.  I visualize myself deleting/erasing, rewording, editing, and proof reading these letters over and over, always thinking of better ways to word this or that.  These letters are so well written (in my head) that when I sit down to actually put it on paper, I can never find the words I came up with at night, in my head, in my bed. 

What is more, is sometimes this letter writing business causes me to get dizzy and even on the occasion get up and throw up like I have been on a merry-go-round. 

If I am being honest with myself this is not just limited to writing letters it is also true about:
-Excel Spreadsheets (lame I know)
-Journal/Blogging (basically letters)
-Dumb trending games like
  -Soduko
  -Candy Crush
  -Angry Birds
-To Do lists

And even sometimes it is just like a loop or broken record where I am doing something over and over in my dream, like go to the air port realize I forgot my passport, leave the airport to get it, and then return to the airport only to find I forgot my passport, and so on. 

I am sure there is medication for this, but I won't try it because I want to make sure I hear my son at night. 

Guess it is what it is, I will continue to solve "all the worlds problems" in my bed head.

What I Want Wednesday

This Wednesday's "What I Want Wednesday" blog is dedicated to all the things FOOD I want when I go back home to Cedar Falls, IA this weekend.  I am going back home for my shower and super excited to see everyone, while I am home I wish I could some how find a way/the time to eat all of the following things:


Hong Kong-Crab Ragoons!
Scratch Cupcakery (lucky for me, my wonderful mother has ordered some for my shower).
Godfather's Taco Pizza!  I am pretty sure this is on the menu for Saturday, aka GAME DAY!!  Go !!!!!!

specifically their Breaded Pork Tenderloin, clearly big enough for two, so I would need some help!

 , they have a Pasta Diablo thingy I like :).

The Fainting Goat



Crispy Wings



And then if I am still not full enough and have enough room for 2 large lunches on Monday, when I drive back to Cedar Rapids (where I fly in and out of) I would like to stop at:

Biaggi's
Granite City
and !!!!

No big deal right?  I can certainly eat all of those things between Friday afternoon and Monday by 2:30pm...right?!  Ok, probably not but it is MY "What I Want Wednesday" and I can dream if I want to!
