Who wants to tell me a bedtime story?
I've had crazy insomnia the past few weeks. I tend to get it every few months. It'll stay for a few weeks and then, as quickly as it comes, it leaves. Meanwhile though for those few weeks, life is just that much less fun. Only a few hours of super poor quality sleep every night? Sign me up! On the plus side though, this gives me more time to find nonsense like this.....
It's funny because it's true.
Truths For Mature Humans

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

11. You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren’t going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.

13. I’m always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page technical report that I swear I did not make any changes to.
14. “Do not machine wash or tumble dry” means I will never wash this – ever.
15. I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? **** it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voice mail. What did you do after I didn’t answer? Drop the phone and run away?

17. I keep some people’s phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.

27. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.
28. Is it just me or do high school kids get dumber & dumber every year?
29. There’s no worse feeling than that millisecond you’re sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.
30. As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate bicyclists.
31. Sometimes I’ll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.
32. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey – but I’d bet my *** everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!

I swear, I was just thinking about #9 today!
I wonder how many emails I've made someone mad because they didn't get my sarcasm...bring on the font!!
These were all great, thanks for the smiles. And next time you're up at 2am, give me a shout, I'm most likely up too! Bleh!
insomnia cant be fun-a friend suffers from it too and swears that melatonin helps. Might be worth a try.
Funny list :) Thanks for the early morning laugh
This is awesome. I just nodded to each and every one of those!
I wish insomnia would just nibble... but no, it always bites.
One of the most popular posts on my blog is one titled 'Top 10 things to do at 3 a.m.' I don't think it's popular because of the incredibly witty, funny, or insightful writing on that post... cause I can definitely state there ain't none. What draws people is the hope of finding a way to go to sleep.
HAHAHA these are great
a lot of people dont get my sarcasm either :( lame!
these were hilarious and so true! many of them i was nodding my head to.
sorry about your insomnia! i've had it for like 2 years now... sucks!
Well, I feel sorry for you having insomnia, but your list is really funny! Pearls of wisdom... Might be worth losing a little sleep. Hope things are back to normal soon!
THe list is hilarious...and I used to suffer from insomnia but then I got a puppy. Do you want to borrow him for awhile? :O)
