Do you ever have the idea that maybe you are a little bit weird, a little bit off, a little bit different from everyone else around you? Like maybe you have some kind of a malfunctioning brain or something? Good, I thought I was the only one! ha
Last night as I was about to go to sleep, or trying to force myself to sleep since 10:30 is pretty early for me (though I have to get up at 5:30 for work), my brain was set into motion. There I was, lying on my bed (which is right by my window). I see lights from a car pulling out and shining into my room as the car turns out of the parking lot. The muppets come to mind "Meeeep.....Meeeeeep....." along with test tubes and big googley eyes and lab coats. Then come the thoughts of my grandma (random? well, I'll explain. Even though I'm 26 I still get scared in the dark--so when I look around my room and see weird things, cause stuff looks weird in the dark, I think about my home, because I always felt safe and secure there, and with home comes Grandma, who really sets that tone of home.) When Grandma and the Muppets start swirling around in my head, my brain starts coming up with really weird word combinations, and keeps repeating them over and over again, along with the "meep meep"'s, it was like a full on orchestra of words and pictures and meep-meeps, and swirling scary things in the dark, and sun and friends and work and running (cause I've been doing that lately), and my dad (probably because I miss him and my whole family haha) and my sisters and my mom and the temple and this BOOK I am reading and all the feelings associated with it.....
Man, just crawl into that brain and try to sleep. HA! Sometimes I wonder......... :)

Dear Shayna...
I like your thinkin'
Good luck sleeping tonight. Hopefully you're not still up. And if you ARE up, throw me into the muppet-grandma mix. Sounds like an interesting place!
