Some Nights...

I don't sleep.  Its my new thing.  I have had my first true sleepless night, and then again I had another.  We say it all the time...I didn't sleep well last night, or I'm working on zero sleep.  But really those are just phrases, we all over exaggerate a little.  This is me not being dramatic.  I really have gone without even a wink of sleep.  Not on purpose.  Not on a weekend.  All because I couldn't stop. thinking. about. the wedding.  I can go all day long without the wedding popping into my head, but the second my head hits the pillow my mind screams you have a wedding to plan!  As if I would forget about it. 

It seems the only way for me to remedy this situation is to think about the wedding often during the day.  Even better if I check something off that to-do list.  Its exhausting, only thinking about the wedding.  By the end of the day, I'm wiped and I hit the pillow hard.  I still keep that notebook on my nightstand just in case something pops into my head I must write down.  That helps a little.

Music helps too.  I've been known to grab my iPod when I can't sleep.  This is whats playing now and what inspired the title of this post.  Some Nights by Fun.  I've already chatted about Fun.  But here's another one of my favs from their cd.  Its a good relaxing tune to unwind with.  This ones called Why Am I The One.

    Okay, good. Just checking.
    It's allll going to work out. And even if it doesn't, you just need to keep that finishing line in mind - you know, the fact that you get to marry an amazing guy and spend the rest of your life with him. You just need to repeat that to yourself over and over again. Well, that and delegate to others as much as possible. You are surrounded by amazing and highly capable people who want to help you. Use them.

    This wedding is a party. A celebration. And then it's over, and the real fun begins. (Not that this wedding won't be awesome. I mean, I'll be there, so... yeah.)

    I'll by there the night of 6/30 now. Use me. I love you!
