Scarlet Fever and Journey

so for the past two hours i've been attempting slumber. for some reason (i can tell you really easily) i haven't been able to get to sleep.

that reason: scarlet fever
while the really bad part (the strep) is gone, it left me with a rash that's just plain annoying. it itches something terrible, let me tell you. it could make a dog feel good about it's fleas (not that i would know how fleas feel to a dog.)

so as i write this blog i listen to journey (for some strange reason "don't stop believing" was on my mind. maybe it had something to do with "cover tunes grab bag"). it doesn't really help.

i really should be in bed, asleep. resting, for i am, as my mother puts it, exhausted from everything i've done, and i have a church trip/vacation tomorrow to New Braunfels. oh boy. but i just can't get to sleep, no matter how long i lie in bed. it sucks, you know?

well, i'm going to try to get some sleep now. (hopefully)
