Sleep is for the Weak!

They say that the worlds best thinkers and inventors had terrible insomnia. They also say that most of them were a little bit loopy as well. (which explains a lot!)

I like to think that I'm occassionally, pretty good at thinking, for example, "breathing is good for my general health and well- being"

I am what some people would refer to as "a creative tangential thinker" who can't seem to curb the connection between what is said in my head and what is said out loud... for example during one of my classes when learning about ratio's, an example of jelly bean flavours was used. I saw this as a fantastic opportunity to bring up the economic status of New Zealand and the increasing gap between the 'haves" and "have nots" It was an excellent moment to bring up the topic of egalitarianism. However other people in my class couldn't connect the dots and needless to say I was surrounded by a bunch of ditzy young women with blank expressions on their faces!
I tried so terribly hard to redeem myself,  much to my dissmay. I actually thought it was hilarious, but as I told other people with a higher intellelect than me, I soon realised that what I had said was bordering on the verge of sounding slightly bonkers. In hindsight I should have kept that little moment to myself!

Late nights such as this, I like to think about all sorts of things, seek the meaning of life, that sort of thing... I always seem to have an epiphany of some sort for example... if we ("normal" clothed people) have strip tease, then what do nudists have as an alternative... dress tease? where they get dressed in a seductive manner?... it's kind of like the difference between a dinosaur that eats meat and one that eats tofu...

And quite often during these late night speals we get those jolly aftershocks! Like just now!  I wouldn't have felt it if I had of been asleep and I doubt I'll be able to sleep now...Stupid tectonic plates, making me nervous... and I have clinical placement tomorrow! URGH!!
