ramblings...what's time?

It's 1:30 in the morning and I haven't written my blog yet. I guess I just haven't really been inspired today. My roommate and I just got back from CK's because I was starving and since I've become somewhat insomniac lately, I was hungry instead of asleep. You know that feeling that you get when you start to think about something and you think about it so much it almost becomes so foriegn, like it doesn't exist anymore? Maybe I'm weird but sometimes I just think about things and if I think about them so in depth, it just becomes this concept and seems like it could never really exist. Like time. I've been thinking about time a lot. Like, I'll be tired in the morning because I probably won't go to sleep until after 3...at least. But once I wake up, and get up, I'll be fine for the rest of the day. And the cycle will start over. Shouldn't I be more tired? I don't think this is really healthy.

Somewhere across the world it's the middle of the day right now. But it doesn't seem like that could be possible. Who invented this thing called time? Where did all the different time zones and stuff come from? I mean it seems like a pretty genious idea whoever came up with the concept for time zones. But then again why can't it be the same time everywhere? Like why can't it be 1:41 am in China right now? I mean, their am would just be the opposite from here and it would really mean daytime, but it would still be the same time. I just find it so weird. I don't know really. I don't know why I'm still awake. I don't know why I'm talking about time. I actually think I'm getting kind of tired. Maybe I'll actually be able to go to sleep tonight.

I hope you got some sleep.

I'm a ridiculous insomniac, have been for years and years. Now, at least, I've got a baby to stare at for hours, instead of thinking about time.

I def. know what you mean! I've been doing it for as long as i can remember! I'll just lay in my bed for hours and my mind is wondering about so much stuff. It's like I cannot turn it off! I stay up for hours and what I started thinking about turned into a totally different subject and I don't remember what I started out thinking in the first place. Has that ever happen to you?
