sleep?

So I was reminded of wise council that my mother gave me years ago as I was reading Jane Austen at about the age of 12, maybe 10 ish... ok she gave me this council in every book that I read, "GO TO SLEEP, or I will take your book away." She made good on her word a few times as well. If only she was here to stop me. Last night at about 10ish I picked up Persuasion, a book we have to read for my class and consequently by my favorite Author, Jane Austen, and well I put the book down around 1ish and kinda fell asleep on the couch with teh book open, then woke up a little bit later, notmuch over a half an hour and sat and talked to Kiley and Anna (wow i dont know how to spell her name sorry...) for about another hour or so. Then they were going to bed, and I decided, in infinate wisdom, to finish up a chapter... well as my mother can attest to, I dont finish a chapter, I finish the book. Yes mom, I read the restof hte book. I was almost done, less than a hundred pages to go. I was so close, and Jane was tanting me with not letting me know how all would end up happy in the end. So I did it, at around 540am I closed the book, resolved to not read the first ending, and was happy to take a nap because Kiley would throw a pillow at me if i was not up.

Now on another note, I finished the book ahead of time, today I stayed in and read more of the other readings, so I am now done with my homework till tuesday. I can go to the museum without feeling guilty of homework. And well, I had a really relaxing day. Now all I need to do is get a straightener, something to take the place of shaving- it is impossible to shave in our bathrooms! and pamper myself before the dance tonight. And well maybe start a new book...... until next time.

- Oh and I plan on writing stories that actually have pictures to go along, one shall be written on monday for sure when teh conclusion to a story will be drawn up and placed presently in its place.
