Small children take naps.
Old people 'rest' in the middle of the day.
College students sleep as little as humanly possible.
Why didn't I ever get this memo? Who was supposed to deliver it to me? Seriously. Because apparently I'm living my life in the wrong order.
I'm a napper. I can't help it. There comes a point in my day when I just need to take a break and recharge. This could possibly be attributed to the fact that I spend a significant amount of my nights on Skype... time that I should be sleeping. But I'm not complaining.
Nope. I like napping. I don't care that I have the same habits as toddlers and senior citizens. Me and my pillow are not ashamed of our close relationship. Although, I wouldn't be opposed to sleeping with something a little more manly...
life lesson #7
Your personal sleeping habits are YOUR personal sleeping habits. They should not be dictated by what the rest of society thinks is normal. Besides, we all know that the best way to fix the grumps is with a nap and a cookie. The world would be a more pleasant place if mandatory napping and snack time didn't stop after kindergarten.

Don't fall for someone you can't have.
Things that get in the way:
• distance
• people
• circumstance
I'm sorry. But someone had to say it. There's more to a relationship than just two people wanting to be together. There are outside forces pushing and pulling in all sorts of different directions. Some for, and some against.
I've made long-distance work. I've failed miserably at it, too. I've let my friends and family convince me not to date someone. And I've told them to mind their own business. I've walked away because it wasn't the right time. But that doesn't mean I've never jumped.
I can't say which way is the best. I have no success stories. I'm a magnet for relationships that are doomed for failure.
It's not pleasant, but it's the truth. And there's not much I can do about it. Except to warn you of:
life lesson #6
You don't always get what you want. Even when you have it and you love it and you know that letting it go will break your heart. You have to do what's best for both of you.
