silver I too skipped breakfast (my mother gave up forcing me to try to eat breakfast when I was about 14 I think). struuter…me too re the sleep thing in the mornings, but going to bed at a sensible time rather than staying in chat? never gonna happen! ---

I remember a few days ago my family was being REALLY loud and woke me up. I came out bitching (I’m pretty mean in the mornings) about how they were inconsiderate bastards and how some of us are fucking tired! and blah, blah, blah. It was about 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Oops. I’d give my left foot for another hour of sleep today though. Can’t… stop… yawning. And my eyes burn. And I look like I just came off a 12 day crack binge. I suppose going to bed _before_ 5am would be a good idea. ---

Oh yes…I am the very model of the modern night owl. Must be genetic. I remember being a little kid and my mom asking my dad at 11:00 at night if he’d drink another pot of coffee. Midnight tea is a common beverage when I visit home. _sniff_ Makes me miss my mom and dad. ---

Seriously, does anyone need/want an extra left foot? ☹ ---

Wouldn’t it be fun if we all met up and invading a grocery store and each bought one of the same thing? But something really weird, like a can of peas or something.
