Lack of sleep is making me crazy

Last night was another sleepless night.  I had gone to bed at 11pm but was still laying wide awake at 2am.  So, what's a boy to do?  Well, instead of studying or working on my German I decided to log onto 'facebook.'  Though I was sucked in and barely made it out alive,  on the upside my cousin and his family were also logged on and we were able to chat for a bit.  We tried to do the video chat but I am too electronically challenged for that.  Maybe next time though.

I know you are curious as to what time I finally went to bed.  Well, at 4:10am I went back into bed.  At 5am I was still not asleep.  I dosed off for a bit and at 6:44am Carsten's alarm went off.  I slept off and on then for a couple of hours and then had to get up to study some more for my test.  On the upside. I thing I did pretty well on it, though I won't know for sure until Wednesday.  

As part of the class today we took a tour of the city, which seemed silly to me at the time as I have seen the city centre and this course isn't cheap (meaning I would rather be working on learning my German than walking).  However, in the end it was quite nice and reminded me of how much I love Freiburg.  It is crazy that things we notice when we go out of our routine.  After the tour we stopped for some coffee, though I had a beer, since German beer really is the best you can find.  Now I am home, doing laundry and cleaning a bit before making dinner.  Cross your fingers, say a prayer, do whatever you can to help me get a restful sleep tonight.
