Apr. 10th, 2008 08:52 amSleepy. I might just crawl back to bed as soon as I'm fairly sure no-one will come knocking on my door, which should be around 17:00.
I have an overactive brain. Last night it regurgitated childhood memories, chewed on them, let the flavours, smells and feelings swirl around to be digested and analyzed by my adult mind. Throughout my childhood I've been making mental notes to myself. The most vivid is one from when I was 11 years old: "When you grow up, remember that children are not stupid. That they see and understand much more than grown-ups think they do. Don't underestimate them."
Right now, a more helpful one would have been: "When you grow up, remember to tell your brain to shut up. At least after 23:00 in the evening."
