For some unknown reason I have been having trouble sleeping lately... its starting to catch up with me.  So I decided to take a nap today when I get out of class before the long night of work ahead of me.  Of course when I turn on the radio it starts playing the saddest but most wonderful song ever.... and like the wuss I have become, I cried for ( Read more... )
