Witchypoo

Yikes!  I've been trying to write this blog post ALL night, but I'm glancing at the clock in the corner of my Sweet Baby Macbook (I say this because she is a petite thing at only 15 inches) and I see that it is now 2:30am.  WHAH??!!!  How did this happen?

I've noticed as I get older that my attention span is waning.  When I was younger, my thoughts would drift and wander off.  Instead of focusing on the teacher at the head of the class, or the customer across the counter, I would tune out and start to entertain, in my head, my plans for the weekend...the movie I wanted see...the new shirt I wanted to buy...the book I wanted to read, etc.  All while smiling and nodding approval at the person in front of me.  Who knows what I was mindlessly agreeing to.

Now that I'm older, I still do this, but instead, I have taken "tuning out" one step further.  Now I just nod off.  Yep... I.  Fall. Asleep.  I don't usually fall asleep in the middle of a conversation (not yet, anyway), but if I sit down on the couch to watch a movie or get some stuff done on my Sweet Baby Mac, Mr. Sandman will stop by and sprinkle some of his Sweet Elixir of Snooze on me and I'm out.  It's not a pretty sight, either.  My head lolls to one side, my eyes do that weird half open/half closed thing, and sometimes I start to drool.  I know this because my sweet husband has been kind enough to occasionally take a pic of this process.  

I don't know about you, but I find the advent of the camera phone to be a blessing and a curse.  And, come on...12 megapixels?!! NOBODY needs to see me in this state in 12 MEGAPIXELS!!!  The other day, I saw a commercial advertising a camera phone with 41 megapixels.  That is ridiculous!  Pics are eventually going to become so sharp that we will need to cross our eyes to focus on them.  Oh, how I long for the Polaroid days when everyone was so blurry we always looked pretty good in a photos.  Instead, we now have the technology to capture an action shot of a drop of drool running down my chin with my mouth agape in mid-snore. Oh, joy.  

Long story short...I fell asleep typing this post.  I have essentially had a 4 hour nap and will undoubtedly have a hard time falling asleep when I finally crawl into bed.  More perks of getting older.  Tomorrow, I will be grumpy, so I'm apologizing in advance to anyone I may happen to encounter.  Just like the 4 year old who launches into a full blown, throw yourself down on the ground, arms flailing about temper tantrum.  I'm seeing one these in my near future, so approach with caution.  

By the way...I have a card to share.  

We've had such wonderful response at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps to our first Krafty Kardmaking Kit, that we thought we would do a little follow up HOP about it.
