Sleepy the dwarf

Yesterday was one of the most pointless days at work ever. The threat of a transit strike had everyone staying up late to see what might happen so no one was at their best. Many kids didn't do their homework on the assumption that they wouldn't be able to make it to school the next day. The whole day seemed like a waste, made worse since the winter break starts next week. As we get closer to the holidays the kids start to vibrate with nearly uncontrollable excitement. (I'm just surprised that there have been no documented cases of spontaneous little-human combustion.) The end result of all this hoo-hah is that when I finally got home, worn out by the day, I dozed off within minutes. Then I woke up for a bit of pizza and watched the Charlie Brown Christmas Special, after which I went to the bedroom because I was still a bit sleepy. I fell asleep until 3am and by then just brushed my teeth and went to sleep. I woke up at 10am, finally having shaken off the sleep bug.
