friday i got up around 9, skipped work, packed, then headed off to yosemite. which was ok except the winding roads which made me sick to my stomach cause i was sitting in the back seat. then we had a campfire which was great.
friday night i slept amazingly well and can't remember if i had any dreams, that's how well i slept (my tentmates informed me that i was snoring, which, i hardly ever do)(i have, on occasion, been known to snore 'cutely' - but rarely anything related to 'sawing logs').
saturday we went to mirror lake and there wasn't much water. but some cool sites. had a campfire. i drank pepsi which may have been my fatal mistake.
saturday night i could NOT fall asleep. i think i was a little afraid of snoring. but i was sweating in my sleeping bag. so i took off some layers. still hot. then i had to go to the bathroom. but my shoes were on the other side of the tent and i wasn't about to crawl over 2 other people. so i went out in my socks. and of course it was dark and i didn't bring my light and i peed on my foot. *sigh* so i had 1 wet sock and 1 dry sock. back to the tent, took off the wet sock. tried to get comfortable. fell asleep. dreamed about my 10 year reunion and there were all these decorations like an art gallery and people i didn't know were showing up and i thought it was great to see them, until the night ended and some security guy told me i couldn't be there and i had to clean everything out, then there was just SO much of my own stuff (furniture, etc) in this place, there was no way i could clean it out before the next day, then these other guys came and yelled at me because they were supposed to use the room...i woke up all panicky, and again, i had to go to the bathroom! this never happens to me. this time i got smart and put my shoes on, went, came back, was still sweating even though it was freezing outside. tossed and turned. back to sleep, dreamed about trying out for a rugby team where my grandma (died 9 years ago) and grandpa were there, and stuart little (the little white mouse) was playing on the team and everyone was trying to kill him and it was horrible!! i woke up again, and it was light out, and i HAD TO GO TO THE BATHROOM AGAIN. this was the most ridiculous night i've ever spent camping.
sunday was not that good, due to not sleeping very much and feeling somewhat ill after eating breakfast. then we were rushing around, trying to get out of there and packing stuff up. we went to bridal veil falls and then over to el capitan to watch the rock climbers. had a picnic lunch, then hiked closer to el cap to try to see the climbers closer up.
then we came home, again, on the winding roads, i felt ill and HOT for at least an hour. got home, made a bunch of phone calls, and went to sleep around 930pm. i had one long dream, which involved me going shopping for clubbing clothes with jamie lee curtis, then meeting up with the guys from the sopranos to knock someone off, then in a restaurant where jennifer aniston was, and brad pitt and angelina jolie showed up and i asked jennifer what she thought we should do. woke up very confused. ?
today is monday and i'm looking forward to another good night of sleep. can't stay on the computer too long or it will never happen.
