As the World Slumbers....

The world spins slowly round and round, gently lulling some of it's inhabitants to sleep.  The sun softly setting and a cool evening breeze blows the shadows of the night back and forth, back and forth.  Pillows plumped, exhausted beings sliding between crisp, cool, sheets....with a deep sigh falling into a deep restful sleep.

Do I look like I'm sleeping?  Once again here I am in what should have been the middle of my rem cycle, wide awake.  Okay...not to stress; I've heard that older people really don't need much sleep.  Relax....think about other things; don't think about the fact that you need to get up by 4:30 in order to get things done.

So I'll think about my beloved, younger sister T.  You remember her---last night in my letter?  I texted her this morning:  "T, just to let you know that I wrote about you last night on my blog."  heh heh (this is a more sinister laugh than your typical ha-ha)

Few minutes later I get a response: "V, just to let you know it was funny.  I'm on my way to see mom and I've printed off a copy to let her read."  heh heh

Drats! Foiled again!  I can just hear the response I'm going to get in the morning during my weekend phone call.

"So, you decided to let the whole world think I put you kids to bed in the middle of the day!" said M.

"No, really ma I exaggerated...you know how writers stretch events sometimes," I lied stretched the truth. 

"Besides, my blog is just a dot out in the blogsphere...no a speck.  Nobody reads it." I said feeling slightly sorry for myself because my blog is a speck and nobody really does read it. Sigh.....

"And when I think of all those spankings your sister received and you were the cause of it." bemoaned M.

"I know, I know and I'm deeply sorry.  I've asked T to forgive me and we are good." said I lying between my teeth.

Wow...just to think of what one little text can do.   I don't think this is over yet...

heh heh heh
