Sleep Cures Everything

It's really sad when you hit the pillow only because you
know sleep is the one thing that can take your mind off
things. But alas, even after sleeping 6 hours in the middle
of the day, you have to wake up eventually and remember
what it was you were escaping from. Mom's not here right
now though, so I get at least a hint of a break. I was so
looking forward to coming home today too, to talk and hang
out with her. And then as usual, everything falls apart. So
now I am again, cleaning my room, so at least when dad
comes home tomorrow he won't have to see a mess...and then
I guess I am taking off. I am going to call my friend Nick
to see if he wants to grab some dinner. then I'll probably
go to school and do work for tomorrow.
Did I even mention my piano juries? Last night I was going
to practice like a mad-woman, so that I would completely
blow everyone away this morning. But instead I went with
Luis, Gabe, Lyndsay, and Gabe's sister Katie, to the
Peppermill, and then to Friday's. They made me realize at
some point during the night, that I wasn't going magically
become a better pianist overnight. This is absolutely true,
so I wished myself luck, and had a drink. At 10am today, I
was on my way to perform, and not nervous. I played really
well, and felt really good about it. Until I got home to my
house, but we've already been over that.
I've found a notice about a little Belmont Cottage. I want
to go look at it. It's $1000/month. That certainly can't be
beat, provided it's a decent cottage, and not like a
cardboard box in someone's backyard.
And now...onward to the task of raising $1500 for the
Performing Arts World Championships. Where do I begin...
the idea is that you send out a letter to all your friends
and family. Mom would probably hate that idea, but unless
she wants to pay for it...too damn bad. I don't have many
options...do I...?
