the things we do... for family. i spent the night at my parents' house on tuesday so i could drive my dad to the airport early wednesday morning. VERY early morning. alarms-to-blare-at-4am kind of early. since i'm not accustomed to hittin' the hay at 8pm, i asked my mom for some valerian. and when that didn't kick in, she gave me a half-pill of tryptophan. and when i was still awake at midnight, i figured i was screwed anyway. i didn't really sleep, in the super uncomfortable bed, anxious that i was going to miss my alarm going off. so when 4 rolled around, i was up, having never really been down. we made it to the airport and off he went (and, amazingly, i saw a girlfriend of mine at the airport at 5 in the morning too!), and i decided that it wouldn't be worth it for me to drive to my house to sleep. so i went straight to campus, parked in the parking structure, and took a nap in my own backseat before heading to work. best, and maybe only, 2 hours of sleep i had all night!
