Half Closed Eyes

Oh so tired.

Last night I was out late at the Indians/Rays Wild Card game. Sadly the Indians lost. More sadly, I didn't get to sleep until 1am and woke up a mere 5 hours later. I was functioning well this morning, but since eating lunch I have hit a wall. In my head I see myself curling up in my darkened bedroom wrapped up under numerous blankets. Sleep sweet sleep how I desire you.

So a nap is what I need. Can it happen this afternoon though? I had planned on going to the library to pick up some things that were waiting for me. I also need to do tonight's pumpkin project for "From the Patch" which is a dinner recipe. And Sooki is going to need a trip outside sometime.

Here's how we can make it work: I can skip the library tonight and hope that my items will be waiting for me tomorrow (a quick check shows me that they will be) This is OK because I have an overdue movie that needs to go back, but is sitting at home, This would save me from passing the library on my way home just to pick up the DVD and then drive all the way back. It will save me time, but it won't save me a nickel for the overdue charge. I am not going to sweat a nickle though. Whoever is waiting for The Evil Dead can wait another day. They'll have it in time for their Halloween celebrations. I can probably start dinner at 5pm, one hour after I get home. Taking the dog out only takes a couple of minutes. That could give me 50 minutes or so of sweet nap time.

So long as I have lentils. I don't now if I have lentils and I absolutely need lentils for dinner. If I don't have them then this whole plan is scrapped as I head out to the store to get them. And if I'm heading out to the store then I might as well hit the library as well. And if all that happens, then no sleep for me. It wouldn't be the end of the world, but I wouldn't exactly be the best company tonight. Nobody wants me tired and cranky.

Screw it, maybe I should just do a double shot of espresso.
