So. Me not with the sleeping last night, as I started to feel tired right around 5:30am as I have all week and less than an hour later had to get up for school, has made me rather tired. So I think I'm going to go take a nap/go to sleep. (The only difference being that to call it a nap, I'll have to wake up sometime before tomorrow morning. Which, unless mom wakes me up -- or, come to think of it, Tyler, dad, and Kacy come home loudly -- might not happen.)
I don't really like that everyone is coming home tonight. I liked it when it was just my mom and I, as she pretty much stayed in the basement and left me alone.
Which was cool.
Because I was on the computer for something like 14 hours on Friday evening/Saturday early morning. *calculates- I woke up at 3:30pm ish, was on the computer until I went to bed at 5:30am. 14 hours.*
But I was mostly reading a book/fic. It's fic, but fic that was published as an original story as a book. And just as long. But I'm reading the fic version, as I'm too cheap to buy the book. And it's not at my bookstore. I checked.
So I'm not some weird computer freak [boldfacedlie] but rather a literary freak [true]. I do often in summers spend that long reading books. *nods*
My dad tends to be pretty cool with me staying up late on the computer as long as I don't wake him up. So that's okay, but Tyler comes to the kitchen 16000 times a night to check if I'm still up. I don't know, maybe I'm supposed to think that's some weird attachment thing or something, but it's annoying as hell, because he always insists on talking to me. Which, in itself is not horrible, but he has no concept of being quiet so that parents don't wake up and kick me off the computer. And when I ask him to shut up, he purposefully talks louder (typical teenage boy behavior).
But I'm proud of myself. I lasted until 5:30ish before deciding to go to bed. I was trying to get back on a normal sleep schedule, and this may do it. I could stay up later, as the week before finals (motto: "Week of Hell") when I had a project for every teacher, I had 2 hours of sleep total from Sunday night to Friday. I do okay, if not well, without sleep. I dislike it, but I function. I think of it as practice for med school. And residency.
