Sleeping..... Trouble Falling Asleep

I do not understand. At night I never seem to want to go to bed. I stay up late, watching TV, excited for the next day, thinking through the many important people and things in my life, and running through everything I am looking forward to. I stay up very late sometimes doing this.

I even set myself a time for when I will begin to try and sleep, if often goes 10:30, then when 10:30 hit I say well maybe 11, then 11:30 and so on and then all of a sudden it's 2am......

When I do finally try and sleep I find it hard, it takes me a good 40 mins to an hour... From what others say it seems they often get to sleep right away, like super fast, within minutes. I don't understand! Is there something wrong with me?! How do others sleep so fast?

But then there is waking up, I just want to sleep, and I am super excited and looking forward to the evening because it means I can sleep and I have all these plans in my head to go to bed at like 9.... But they never happen! It's a never ending cycle.

Do you fall asleep fast? If so tell me how!

Anyone Heard Of Coning? It's Pretty Awesome!

So a friend showed me coning, and I have not stopped laughing since. Check it out!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2

So I hear that today is the day that Harry Potter comes to that rather large screen we all over pay to sit in front of and see a movie. The funny thing is that everyone thinks I know all about it because I am from England.

In all actuality I have never even picked up the book (unless my sister left it on the floor and I was vacuuming and I moved to vacuum underneath like the amazing son I am) and probably never will. Never really been into reading much, I read Michael Schumacher's biography once, that was awesome. Can't remember reading much else. Even those books we had to read in school I just watched the movie versions or when I was really young pretend I could not read and have the mother read to me....


Then there is the movie version of Harry Potter. I think I went to see it once, though I could be completely wrong. If I did I paid no attention whatsoever and can't remember a thing about it.

I have nothing against the kid, I have nothing against people wearing glasses or people waving sticks in the air trying to make a bunny jump out of their pointy hats, I just never really tried to get into the book or movie. But maybe I should. I heard some of the movies have quite a lot of action and I love action. So maybe one day I'll give it a go. But unlike 50% of the population I am not going to line up for the next 6 weeks to see it. I'll check it out later me thinks.

I do have one piece of bad news for you all. I saw the ending in my dream the other day. Mr Pothead dies......

This Will Be Me And My Kid One Day!

This is exactly what I'm gonna do with my kid one day!

The Question That No One Seems To Know The Answer To

I was on the toilet the other day. A great way to open a blog post I know, but I noticed something and it confused me.

I was looking at the toilet paper, and noticed that the paper came over the top of the roll and down the front face of it allowing me to pull and rip off at the front.

Is this the right way up? Because I have also seen it where the paper runs down the back side of the roll and you reach under the roll to pull and rip.

Which is correct?

I think I prefer the front but then the back is nice because it's tidy and hidden....

Early Morning Runner?

So each day on my way to work I see at least 10-15 women trying to run. Not all together, most are on their own, or with 1 or 2 others but all separetly.

Why would anyone ever get up so early to go for a run? The only time I run is when begin chased by a dog after drinking a caffeinated drink (I only run after taking a caffeinated drink, never walk). The crazy part is half of them are not even running. I call them 'Standers' rather than 'Runners' and they stand in the weirdest places. Usually it's in the middle or the road and they look all pissed as you drive by them like your the crazy one for driving on the road.

No to long back I even saw a cyclist. It was a guy and he had his dog on a leash attached to his arm cycling along, until the dog had enough and stopped dead causing the guy wearing shorts that are too short for anyone living to be wearing to fall of his bike. At 645 in the morning this was pretty hilarious!

I don't get it though, whats with all this exercise in the morning? I bought a car because I don't want to walk. What's with these people? They are crazy. I'd much rather be in bed than standing in the middle of the road wishing I was dead. Maybe that's why they are in the middle of the road? And I certainly don't want to be using my bike to walk a dog that hates me. Maybe the dog was so annoyed he was waken up so early that was his way of saying 'this is the last time your making me do this'?

The Best Video I Have Seen All Morning!

I saw this and was blown away. Almost as much as this guy was.

That's why I didn't join the army...

Is It A That A Toyota Or A Ferrari?

I saw this car on the freeway the other day and fell in love.

The design of this car is just incredible, the lines flowing from the front to the rear, the sleek body and free flowing curves just make this car one that I want to own. I mean it must have cost a few hundred thousand dollars.

Then there was the sound and the performance, when this guy put his foot down it was like music to my ears and it shot off like a stabbed rat.

When I finally caught up to this magical beast I saw why, it's a Ferrari. It says so on the back so it must be true. Why else would it have a Ferrari badge on it? I mean no one would be stupid enough to put a Ferrari badge on a Toyota. If they did they are stupid because a Ferrari badge would be worth more than the car. So after seeing this I have made a decision, sell the Bimmer, save my pennies and buy this beautiful Ferrari.

Can I Play On Your Farm?

Yesterday I was shocked. Horrified even. I could not believe it. I nearly had a heart attack. I logged into Facebook which I rarely ever do (except for the few hundred times a day) and I saw something that I thought I would never see again. In my news stream was a post offering a free sheep in FARMVILLE.

Farmville? I mean I thought that thing ended like a year ago? Sure that was great for a couple of weeks until people began to realize it was more work building a farm on the computer than it actually was in real life, but why now? How on earth is it still going?

Fair enough this sheep looked pretty good, but why would i want it? Farmville does not allow me to kill the live stock I keep so I can have a good lunch so what's the point? If I want to be a farmer I'd buy a plot of land and hire a few thousand illegal Mexican's, they do a great job looking after our yard so I'm sure they would be great in a farm.

I am kind of worried about logging into Facebook now, I just know someone is going to offer to beat me up on Mafia Wars or something, which I never got into. I mean it's just a newer less offensive game than the original Drug Wars. I'd rather buy a crap load of drugs and sell them than get hunted down buy a fat Italian.

Vacation Ideas - This Guy Went Where No Man Has Gone Before

I love vacations. They are awesome! This weekend I shall be heading down to Las Vegas for a few days. It's great to get some time away, relax, and not have a  care in the world.. It's also really good to see where other people go.

I hear a lot of people going down to California, Cancun, Florida, Hawaii and all kinds of cool exotic places, but my co-worker went to the best I have seen yet. I haven't asked him where he went but but looking at him I already know. He went to the Sun. I know it. Where else can you get a burn like this? I bet he even booked on that Orbitz travel website.

Counting Sheep - It Does Not Work. Period.

Last night I could not sleep. I was wide awake and remember the clock showing 4am. And to make things worse I had to wake up at 6am. The thing I do not understand is the counting sheep thing.

At some point last night, who knows what stupid time it was , but I tried this counting sheep business. I don't get how it works. If anything I made me more awake trying to get the numbers right and whether the sheep are black or white, shaved or un-shaved, are they jumping over a fence or aren't they, is there a farmer chasing me because he thinks I'm gonna nick his sheep? There is a lot going through your head when it comes to counting sheep and it just makes you more awake.

I don't see how that could ever work, and after seeing that it wasn't going to I decided to try other things, like turn the TV off. That worked.

Hot Or Cold? I Don't Know What To Wear And Apparently My Hair Is Wrong

I wake up in the morning, I look out the window and it's sunny but it's cool in the house. Now I don't know about you but when I'm cool I like to dress so I am warm enough. This creates a problem.

I get dressed I go outside and I die. Just die. It's super duper hot, I sweat like an Arabian pig, and people stare because they think I'm crazy. I end up going back inside home again to get changed but then I feel how cool it is inside and I begin to question myself, maybe I was wrong and it really isn't that hot out there. But it is.

It has gotten so bad that I now keep clothes in the truck of my car so I can change if required throughout the day. I really don't care about the weatherman on tv telling me it's going to be 90 degrees, all I want him to do is tell me what I need to wear.

And then there is the hairdresser. I went to get my hair cut a couple of weeks back, I asked just for a little tidy up or a trim and she kept questioning it for the next 20 minutes she took. She kept telling me everyone else is going short. I don't care, I like it how it is. Stop telling me this.

Maybe I just go out naked and put clothes on as required. Oh and shave all my hair off.
