its snowing still. i swear to god it has snowed for 12 hours straight. but it is the prettiest snow you could imagine, like something out of a fairy tale. so ill just describe to you my current situation in the simplest way possible. it is currently 10:07 pm. im lounged over my comforter, half in the dark, writing, because id rather do that then study for my Italian quiz tomorrow. My back hurts from laying in this position for so long, and i am pretty sure my leg just fell asleep. i hate that feeling so much. its painful and numb and ticklish all at the same time if that is even possible. the snow plow just passed by my house and nearly gave me a full blown heart attack. i don't do very well with loud noises. my house is asleep. i can hear my brother snoring in the next room, and my dad down the hall.
why is it that most men have respiratory issues when they sleep? and its not just men, my mom is a very loud breather. i really hope i don't snore. i think its kind of embarrassing. that and drooling in your sleep, but iv been told that i am a quiet drool-free snoozer. i don't mean to sound creepy, but i really do like watching people sleep. sometimes on weekends when i'm up all night, i go in and check on my family. my 11 year old brother jack is the kind of kid who takes up the entire bed. he's on his back, limbs flailing in every direction. eyes half open, rolled to the back of his head. he is also the sleep walker/talker/screamer of the family. it really is frightening sometimes. my mom and nick sleep on their sides, my dad on his stomach, and i prefer to curl up into a ball among my many comforters. but i have to say, that no one is as funny when they sleep as herbert is. we fall asleep together in so many places. my bed, his bed, my couch, the bus, the movies, anywhere. we fall asleep with his arms wrapped around me and our legs intertwined, and i proceed to feel him twitch and spazz out. im trapped in a death grip, so i wait it out, and believe me, he twitches alot. (: i can't say that i don't love it though.
you can really tell alot about a person when they are asleep. if they stay in one spot, then you can tell that they are happy and at peace. when tossing and turning, a person obviously is nervous, or has a lot on their mind. and when a person wakes up screaming their plans for suicide, then maybe you should get them psychoanalyzed. but really all in all sleep is a wonderful thing, something i'v been lacking these last six months. something i need to catch up on. maybe i'll start now. so here is to a good night, because everyone looks better with a little beauty sleep.
