nightswimming

Inspired by Wix.

Man, I love that REM song.

I went to my 1st spin class this evening. My friend Susan was teaching, and the workout kicked my ass. So I doubt that I'll have any trouble sleeping tonight, though I once contemplated writing this letter and sticking it in a drawer somewhere -- for its therapeutic value and to find some solace on sleepless nights:

------

Dear Sleep God/dess,

Please allow me to have a restful slumber. Most times, I like sleep. I've heard that 7 to 8 hrs is good for you, and I think that would be delightful. I hope that you'll do what you can to help make it happen.

Thanks in advance.

Warm regards,

Shelley M. Su

Perhaps, I should leave letter-writing by the wayside and stick with intensive workouts that remind me I really do have butt muscles.

And perhaps nights spent listening to sweet lullabies by REM will help too.

Nightswimming. Deserves a quiet night....

so... that song got me through an entire semester of college, the shittiest and most confusing one in fact. Not that college even remotely compares to real life, but just to confirm that generally speaking, Nightswimming is a good one to break out when the shit hits the fan.

I actually have no middle name. The middle initial was recently given to me by another.
