Counting Sheep (minus the sheep and the counting)

     It takes me hours to fall asleep sometimes because my brain doesn’t turn off… I think about everything. The other night I was remembering how to do fractions and how in school they teach you with pizza slices and then I thought about how I love cheese but I hate really cheesy things because when I eat them the cheese is so stringy that sometimes it starts to go down my throat before I’m ready to swallow and then I feel like I’m choking and then I can’t eat the rest of the meal because I’m too scared I’ll choke again. People say if you have the hiccups you should swallow water upside-down. How do you do that without choking? And what’s the purpose of those pens you can write with while upside-down. Did they really create a pen just so people in space can write? 1. I’m pretty sure they are using computers up there and are not jotting down important NASA notes in a hello kitty notebook. And 2. If for some reason they are writing, what’s wrong with a pencil? Are astronauts too good for pencils? So they’re too good for pencils, but not too good to wear a diaper. Strange.
