dear waking up before it is all over diary,
waking in the middle of the day is like capturing a firefly in a jar, watching it for a while, and then letting it go instead of smashing it across the concrete sidewalk to get that glow-in-the-dark line it leaves when you kill them- a relief for the lightning bug- but a disappointment for the napper. i love to see my name in the glowing juice. the trick is to have all the lightning bugs already caught and ready to kill because that glow juice wont last long once its smeared. i am always a couple bugs short of completing my name and i always wake up half way through the day when i try to sleep the whole day away. yup i am up today- and the lightning bugs haven't come out yet this year. it prolly wont be that long tho. i saw the ants already. i hate ants. i had one aunt i liked the best, aunt donna. she lived with chickens and sheep. i'm sure she had ants there too, but uncle oliver prolly took good care of them for aunt donna.
