ALLELUIA

I couldn't sleep last night. I'd messed up my schedule and wasn't able to even get into bed until halfway through the night. Then I woke up every hour on the hour terrified I was going to oversleep. At 7:15am I got up for work and promised myself I'd sleep early tonight when I got home.
Work was hectic and we had a lot to do. This was good because at least the day went by quickly.
On the way home from work I picked up E so he could keep me company while I did my laundry. It was high time I washed my clothes. You don't even want to know how badly they needed it!
While we were at the laundromat, E remarked that he felt like having a buffet. He never wants that so I was excited. I wanted to take him to the Golden Corral in Winder. Once a few years ago BS and I were in Macon and we stopped at a Golden Corral for breakfast and I've been enthralled with it ever since. Then when I went with P the other night my love was rekindled. I've been aching to return ever since (and it's only been 2 days!)
By now it was already after 7pm and surprisingly, I'd lapsed into a sort of blissfully calm state. My sleep-deprived brain was ignorantly happy--not unsober, but definitely altered.
The buffet was awesome as always and I stuffed myself. (Isn't this Lent!?) I ate many things including but not limited to:

Cornbread
Stuffing
Mac N Cheese
Mashed Potatoes
Sauteed mushrooms
Fried okra
Broccoli
Cauliflower
Banana pudding
Chocolate cake
Chocolate cupcake
Two cookies
Carrot cake

We got to see the glowing cemetery again on the way home but it wasn't as lit up as before. We saw a sign posted near the entrance and found out why: a new insurance rule is making all the people take away all the lights! So the glowing cemetery slowly is becoming the stuff of myths. Time is running out to see it in all its quirky glory!
I didn't get home again until 9pm but man did I have a productive day. I logged 90 miles on my car since 8am. 90 miles. I can't stop being appreciative. I mean, several months ago I was excited about driving 2 miles to Kroger. That's how bad my car and brain were.
PRAISE THE LORD!
Truly if this isn't a miracle I don't know what is. Not only am I cured from my health problems of the past few years, but I seem to be better than ever.
I'm exhausted, but it's a "good tired" as the people at the cliche office tend to say.
E hooked my My Space up with one of my favorite songs. Check it out: www.myspace.com/tent6still
