Mindless Clicking

It's after midnight. I missed blogging on December 1st by 12 minutes. Instead, I've been mindlessly clicking around the internet.

With two hours sleep last night, a very busy day at work today and thinking I'd come home and go to bed, I am sitting here just clicking from page to page. Wide awake, but basically brain-dead (yeah, I know, I'm opening myself up for all kinds of sarcastic remarks for writing that!).

I probably should rename this blog something to do with insomnia.

I've cruised a lot of interesting pages, but can't seem to retain the thoughts long enough to write anything about them. Or I'm just too lazy right now to give it any real thought.

The poor peace activist who have been kidnapped in Iraq. I've read several blogs about them and their probable fate, including
the Median Sib. Idealistic, unrealistic, naive, silly, stupid and horribly misguided. Their reckless disregard for the dangers of the world (a war zone, no less) and credulity and disloyalty to their own country will probably cost them their lives, in a very cruel and horrific manner. I have a lot of thoughts about that, but it'll have to wait.

I've read a few of pro-surrender sites. People who seem to think that surrendering to the enemy is the answer to ... the answer to what? I haven't figured that out. They just scream surrender and vile hatred for our President and critism of everything American. But I don't seem to get their motivations, other than they just want to protest something. I have a lot of thoughts on this too, but another day.

Most of these types are in their 20s or 60s (who are missing the 1960s).

I've seen several really silly accusations against the behavior of our military. They always say they support the troops, but are against the war. But they attack the troops to protest the war. Perplexing, isn't it?

So there'll be more to say on another day when I'm not so sleep deprived. Meanwhile, I'll be clicking around glaring at the computer screen.

Gute Nacht

Get some sleep this weekend! Maybe you should get some Ambien. It'll sure put you to sleep, but it'll put you in slow-motion the next day. Unfortunately, I identify too much with you. I can swear I'm only going to check email quickly, and three or four hours later, I'll realize I've been writing posts and reading other blogs for hours instead of minutes. Repeat after me: "I am Beth. I am a blog addict."

Speaking of insomnia, have you seen the movie, "The Machinist", starring Christian Bale(the new Batman)? It's about a guy who hasn't slept in like a whole year and becomes this wasted skeleton of a man who starts hallucinating. Check it out some time. I hope you'll get some rest soon.
