Usually it does for me too. But I was already falling asleep at the computer. XD; So I just went somewhere more comfortable and zonked out before I realized it.

I have had chronic insomnia all my life.

That sucks. >_< But that explains why you're up at crazy hours, at least!

I'm just a night owl. XD;

I worked a lot of late night jobs too.

Yeah - that'd help solidify that sort of sleeping pattern, I think. :x My parents keep saying (or used to say) that I should get a graveyard shift job at Wal*Mart since I like being up at that hour. I think they fail to understand that I'm up at that hour not because I have nothing to do, but because I like being socially and/or creatively active at those hours. XD;

I even liked being up at night when I was really little. I would sneak down to the end of my bed and watch TV because I could see into the other room. But one night I saw this thing on the hope diamond and how it's cursed. It scared me so bad! :XD

XD I used to wake my parents up in the middle of the night and make them pop in video tapes for me. Mostly it was Mary Poppins, but sometimes it was the Muppets. XD; My parents keep telling me that story. I hear it at least twice a year. D: About how I'd wake them up going, "Poppins. Poppins." and they'd put me in front of the tv and go back to bed for a bit and then check on me and I'd be asleep, so they'd put me back to bed. And then a few hours later... *tugtugtug* Poppins... poppins...!

Wash, rinse, repeat. XD;

Hope Diamond was actually kind of cool.... What got me was I watched some scary Doomsday prediction shows much too young. One of them was the Mayan calendar one, which is why I'm kind of twitchy about it. XD;

I think I was about 3 at the time. But when I was little we didn't have tapes.

Did they ever announce the winners of the contests?

No... I think the staff members in charge have either been sick or have family in town. x_x; I will prod them now before I forget! :o

Real life has to come first. Doesn't curb my curiosity though. ;)

::pulls self out of addicted-to-DS-game haze:: I think the prodding worked. XD

Oh noe...! There is thread-rolling going on in here!

*thread resque*

Oooh - your outfit is so cute right now, Blondheart! :heart: Those are some really lovely, soft colors together!

Oh - I should note, officially, that I purchased the Phoenix Skirt. ::goes to cross that off her list!::

Nooeeee...! My thread! D: Sporked before its time... :c

Thank you! And congrats on the skirt. I love that skirt, it was one of the first things I wanted.

XD Thanks! I realized it wasn't even on my list of things I wanted to get... I think that is probably because I really hadn't properly seen it on an avatar until recently - because when I had seen it, it was usually covered up a lot and I couldn't appreciate the pretty details. :3

Oh - we have fireflies outside. :o

I like the outfit you have on now!

Aww that's so nice of her Paprika!

Was it the same avatar I have on now? XD; ::forgets how often she's changed:: >_> Either way, thanks. XD :heart:

Woo hoo - chocolate hat. XD Congrats!

And wow - that's generous of Hina! Even with that you'll be paying her back. XD

And neat that you found a seller of a Welcome tee! Not that I've been exactly looking, but I don't often see them sold either. :3 Good luck!

Edited to add:

I forgot to mention my recent purchases! >___> I got the following items:
- Staff from Heaven
- Tangerine Odyssey Jacket

Whee! \o/

Yes it's the one you have now.

I am so annoyed...I ran out really fast to buy a new handbag for my trip. Cause the 300 I already have weren't right. :XD Anyway I found 3, and I get up to the counter and this woman who seriously should never have been working in a nice retail store to begin with rings me up. She looks at my three purses and she says..."Do you think you got enough?" I thought that was pretty impertinent of her right there. But then when she got the Vera Wang she says..."Wow I can't believe anyone would spend this much on a purse!" Um well then honey what are ya doin working in the purse department of a nice store! Geez it was rude!
