Insomnia
Melanie - August 23, 2008
I am not even kidding that it is 5:46 a.m. on Saturday morning and I am sitting on the floor of the bathroom (with pillows and towels underneath me, of course) of the hotel writing a post.
Some might say I have a problem.
I'll partially blame it on the fact that I've had to take oral prednisone this week and I believe it has given me a touch of the insomnia, but really I think it's that my mind is so full of all the events of yesterday.
I was able to spend time with so many sweet friends that I've met through blogging. I can't believe I have friends that I met on the internet. Next thing you know I'll become a huge fan of science fiction.
We arrived at the Alamodome around 6:15 yesterday evening, found our seats, and waited for everything to start. There is just something about being at these events that blows my mind. To look around and see 10,000 other women praising God is an awesome thing.
I know Sophie and I will talk more about Beth's message over the next few days, but I'll tell y'all that the theme was INHERITANCE.
Inheritance, as in our inheritance in God and also the fact that WE are His inheritance.
That blows my mind.
And may be part of the reason that I'm sitting on a bathroom floor at 5:54 a.m. wide awake with a million thoughts running through my mind.
Sophie just woke up and came in here to make sure that I was okay. I can see how it would be troubling to realize your roommate has been in the bathroom for 45 minutes.
She may be more disturbed now that she knows I'm not terribly sick, I'm just on the computer.

She may be the only person on earth that not only understands, but is willing to join you!
Have a blast, Ladies! I can’t wait until Beth’s in my neck of the woods!

More likely, she got her computer out and joined the party. I hear she’s got a blog, too, right?

“Next thing you know I’ll become a huge fan of science fiction.”
Even at 5:45am you can still crack me up!
Can’t wait to read about all the wonderfulness!

Oh Melanie,
How I wish I was there!! And can I just apologize to you because in Atlanta, I came over with Kim and hugged Sophie and absolutely just didn’t realize you were sitting right there. I guess I just didn’t recognize you or something.
Can we hug next time we’re in the same place???
Blessings, Dori

I’m surprised that Sophie didn’t realize you were computering in the bathroom! Funny girls! Can’t wait to hear more.

I feel your pain as far as insomnia goes. I was supposed to come to the PJ party last night but I was so flippin’ tired from a month of insomnia, that I just fell asleep!!! My husband couldn’t understand why I flew all that way and did little site seeing! I didn’t come all the way to SA to site see, for Pete’s sake! I came to see Beth and the girls! sheesh!
I hope you get some much needed rest SOON!
