Thirty-seventh Lotus

[spandexisyouth]

I need to find something that I like the taste of that is caffienated. I am having trouble staying awake at [pause] some times when I should stay awake. I do not know why this is happening; I have never had trouble like this before!

And it is not a sign that I am getting old. Before anyone says that. Or thinks that. Or writes that.

Maybe I'm boring you.

[spandexisyouth]

You do not and would not bore me.

struck out quickly, and very struck out.

[grab_my_bells]

Yet you still fall asleep. On me, no less. Maybe Stoneface has been overworking you, in more ways than one.

[spandexisyouth]

Maybe it is just a way of saying that you are comfortable and I am comfortable with you though very tired! I did not mean to do that! And work is not a problem. It has not been before.

Coffee.

[spandexisyouth]

Will it not keep me up too long? It is bitter, but if there are no other ideas I will try coffee.

[redhead_rabbit]

There're all sortsa things ya can put into coffee to flavor it, yanno.

How long do ya wanna stay up?

[spandexisyouth]

I did not know that!

An hour, I think. An hour more than I was able to.

[weaver_girl]

Maybe a fancy sort of coffee? There's a place in the Bazaar that serves different kinds.

[spandexisyouth]

Is there? I did not know this! Can you remember what shops it was near?

[weaver_girl]

It's not far from the bar, but it's sort of hidden in a corner. I'll take you if you'd like. I haven't tried everything they have yet.

[spandexisyouth]

I would like that! I will want it for tonight though. Does coffee stay good for a time?

[blue_shields]

I have the opposite problem; I couldn't get to sleep at all last night.

[spandexisyouth]

I wonder why there is so much difficulty with sleeping right now.

[blue_shields]

Beats me. The rainbow sheep are back, too.

[spandexisyouth]

They are? I do not have them, again. I wonder what that means.

[ice_echani]

Have you spoken with the doctors at Wellspring about it? Perhaps it is a symptom of an illness.

[spandexisyouth]

I have not. I do not like speaking with doctors about things. Unless they are other things. Then I enjoy talking with them!

[ice_echani]

I would consider a sudden sleeping problem to be on a list of things you should speak to a doctor about.

[spandexisyouth]

It is not like I am injured or sick or anything!
