Insomnia

Sparky has decided to sleep while I am awake and party all night long. This is not a good outcome for me now that I can feel all the partying. Last night between Sparky, needing to use the bathroom twice, and Maize being "scared" - I was awake at least every hour starting at midnight. We need to get these interruptions on a schedule so that Sparky's party, Maize's panic at the snowplows, and my bladder all wake me one time, rather than 3 or 4.

Today is Steve's birthday, so Sparky and I are taking him out for dinner when he gets back from school. My belly is getting stretched out and is now 41 1/2 inches, so I figure some birthday celebration won't even effect my waistline at this point.
