I Finally Got Some Sleep!

Finally some sleep! Last night we went out with a group of old friends. We were supposed to see a local band "Angie and the Car Wrecks" they cancelled. I ate some of the worst pizza I have ever had, pretty sure they commission a local home-ec class to do the cooking, it was thin, covered in I think tomato paste, govmt chee, and all sliced up on a brown plastic lunch tray. 

We had planned to stay on our friends boat so we wouldn't have to drive home, it's a beauty, 40 something feet of teak and fiberglass, it has a state room, 2 heads, a nice size salon, and the v-birth converts into a pointy queen size bed. If I owned a boat it would have to be one like that.

Since the band cancelled, and Shelton is a small and shrinking town with zero entertainment except the smokey casino, all ten of us went back to the boat for the rest of the evening. We aren't generally late night people, we go to bed at 10, but when we are with this particular group of friends we can stay up to greet the sun, we went to bed at 2:30. And I had the best nights sleep that I have had in a long time, I guess I can't say that 6 hours is a full night sleep, but it was continuous. I'm a little tired today, slightly hung over, and feeling a little swimmy like I'm still on the boat, it doesn't take long for me to develop sea legs, but it seems like it takes a day or two to get rid of them. 

Today is a lazy lay around the house and eat carbs kind of day. Our favorite day after food is a bowl of Velveeta mac and cheese with mashed potatoes and pork and beans. Toss in a couple slices of buttered bread, and you've got yourself a carbohydrate bomb fit for even the most hung over king.
