Sheep Counting


Memories of childhood take me to brief moments in front of the TV interrupted by my mom's knowing looks that say, "You know you should be doing your homework." Guiltily I linger in front of the box for a desperate few extra seconds while watching the old man in the cartoon try to go to sleep... by counting sheep.

Counting sheep? There's nothing magical about counting sheep. The theory behind this method is that one basically bores himself/herself to sleep, I think. But why sheep? I actually just burst into looney-ish laughter in front of the computer right now. (Don't random things just make you crazy-laugh sometimes? Or is it just me?)

Anyway, HAHA re: sheep. What an unsuspecting creature.

So there it is. I find counting sheep hilarious. Therefore, I cannot lull myself to sleep by counting sheep (HAHAHA! sheep.) because, like I said, that doesn't bore me; it entertains me. So what now?
