Miles to go


You’d think that I’d be better at this game by now. That I wouldn’t be an idiot anymore. I mean come on. Don’t grown-ups have this figured out? I wish that all those naps that I took as a kid had somehow been stored somewhere so that I could make a withdrawal now. I should have cherished my sleep. I’m still trying to live by the rules of this game. Because sleep and time don’t work like the money in the bank. I don’t have it figured it out yet.

All I have is miles to go before I sleep.
