Day Two of “Improve B’s Sleep”

Well, I had more energy during the day, but I still slept like crap last night. I’m just not falling into deep sleep.

But this morning, on our walk, I think I found ditch weed! I don’t honestly know enough about marijuana to recognize it on sight while sprouting in its natural state (I think that gets me kicked out of liberalism, but there you go), but I was looking for this plant we saw yesterday, that was weirdly shaped like a three inch “x,” when I noticed a whole bunch of tiny familiarly shaped leaves in a bunch.  They were all very small, but I laughed and wished I’d had a camera to show you.  One wonders how long it will be before anyone gets by to cut them down.

Ha, Wikipedia to the rescue! Imagine a good three foot square clump of these. That’s what I saw.

They can’t possibly be on purpose, because they’re right along the road, right where they’ll be mowed, should anyone ever mow again. So, I think that qualifies them as honest to god ditch weed. Well, shoot, if it’s in seedling form there, you know it’s grown up somewhere nearby. Ha, oh war on drugs, you’re so stupid.

I mean, I, too, have a war on weeds every year and I still have weeds.

  1. Ha! You totally win. Best I ever managed was a back-alley outbreak of free-range cherry tomatoes.

  2. Marijuana generally makes people sleep better, you know. I’m just saying.

  3. Yeah, I’ve heard that. But I’m concerned about whether I have a long enough extension cord to get from my house to the road so that I can still use my CPAP machine while trying out my new bedding.

  4. Can’t you get batteries for it?

  5. Okay, for a brief period, I swear I saw an ad for weed killer (not killer weed…) at the bottom of your post…

  6. Ah! Know the CPAP well! I can’t sleep without mine, and as you can tell by the time I posted, I can’t sleep right now due to too much caffeine too late last evening!
