Musings of an anxious Insomniac

What happens when you wake up at 2:30 in the morning craving a turkey sandwich with swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato, and mustard on slightly toasted 7-grain bread?

Normally, you go into the kitchen and knock it out. If you're me, you lie in bed hoping to fall back asleep until you come to terms with the fact that that's not going to happen anytime soon. So you roll out of bed and head into the kitchen for that sandwich, right? No. You don't. Because there is no turkey or swiss cheese in there. Is the store open at 3 am?? Probably not... So, if you're me, you putz around wasting time on your computer until you're so tired your body has no choice but to pass out from sheer exhaustion. Great success!! (Sorry, I just saw Borat for the first time yesterday.)
