Sometimes on Tumblr
I like to read the entire blog of someone. Last night at around 2am I read the rest of Lauren Zettlers. Who’s next? This is why I never sleep…
sleep.
laurenzettler:
i have been staying up so late recently. i get a second wind around midnight and find myself forcing sleep at around two a.m. and then, of course, i wake up later than i like, perpetuating the cycle.
still wide awake. 2:01 a.m.
This is what I do every night. I refuse to go to sleep. Current time: 1.25am.

1. Jenny Owen Youngs: This is my favourite 2009 discovery and it’s all thanks...
