So DAMN Tired!

I bet there are lots of people out there with their lame posts about how tired they are. But rest assured, I am more tired than all of those stupid people!
First off, I have insomnia, big time. I can probably blame this on Al, because he works so late, or I could blame it on the GREAT TV that is on at 2 am (informercials, etc.), but to be honest I think its just a chemical thingie. It is so irritating!
But wait, THERE'S MORE! (speaking of informercials) Felix woke up SCREAMING this morning, bright and early at 5am. Did I mention this was almost the exact MOMENT that I had finally fallen asleep? Al gets up, takes care of him, then goes to bed. More screaming ensues after a short period of sweet, sweet silence. I look at Al and say, "Will you please get the Bear?" and he says, "But Mama, I have to WORK tomorrow, and I am so tired!" I have no sympathy for him at this point, even though I should because he was not only awake as long as I was, but he was also WORKING. So he gets up again to calm the Bear. Long story short, Felix starts screaming what seems like every 20 minutes, and Al and I are physically exhausted.
Did I mention that I have a job interview today and that I desperately need to go to school because my attendance sucks and it is the last week of the semester? And that Al is working overtime today? Al and I started yelling at each other, half-asleep, making foundationless arguments WHY the other person needs to get up instead of us. Even while we are yelling and arguing, we know that once we get some sleep we will realize how dumb the arguing was and laugh. But in the moment, its like you will do ANYTHING to just close your eyes and go to bed- your partner is the enemy, and you must manipulate them into thinking they are a bad parent so YOU can be a bad parent and go to sleep. So now I am up with the Bear, NOT going to school and NOT going to the interview. And SO DAMN TIRED. Felix is very lucky he's adorable because I don't do this for ANYONE but him!
