Sleep is for wussies. I'm never sleeping again.

1. Um..."pour" you a "coffee"?
You need espresso. And a syringe.

3. Or a good case of chronic depression.
That'll keep you up, and there aren't any cups to clean.

12. Well, wait a couple minutes
I'm watching "COPS" and it looks like they're outside your apartment...

13. Someone's probably going to make you give it back.
Not enough of that to go around up there in the Great Frozen North at this time of year. Even in Vancouver.

5. Well if you insist, but I'll need
you to handle the needle. I don't think I could poke one in myself.

9. Not that hard once you get the hang of it.
Or so the diabetics and heroin addicts I've known have told me. (Bit needle-phobic, myself.)

14. I had a hard enough time pricking my finger in biology in HS
Doesn't bother me if someone else does it.

You're going to be the BEST ex-husband a girl ever had.

16. That was sweet of you to say.
Just for that I'm going to paint the living room this spring. I'll have the place all spruced up for you.

20. You deserve a big kiss

*SMOOOOOCH*

I think we'll be blissfully happy until we bust up at New Year's Eve.

21. The time table works for me
New Year's Eve break ups are great. We can get all dressed up and go to a fancy restaurant. We can get in a loud argument and you throw a drink at me, and your wedding ring. We can get somebody from the photography group to take pictures.

I'm getting all misty eyed here, it's so romantic.

22. I wanted to do it on the dance floor
We need to make a really BIG scene.

I would never throw my ring. A smart lady doesn't chuck jewelry.

25. I'll get you an extra ring,
an imitation one just for throwing. Dance floor is perfect, it needs to be a very romantic song, to make it more poignant.

Damn...I'm going to miss you.

26. You are just so thoughtful
It should be 'our song.' What is our song going to be? I'll let you pick.

After we yell at each other, and I throw my drink in your face and the fake ring at your feet, I'm going to start sobbing and then blindly run through the crowded room and out into the night. I'm such a drama queen.

Will you run after me?

27. Yes, I'll run out
into the nite, crying out your name. It should be snowing so I can't see what direction you're running in. For the rest of my life I'll relive the moment, wondering what I could have done to have saved our relationship.

I'll have to think about the song, I want the moment to be perfect.

28. I was thinking we could have a teary farewell at the cab
But I like yours better. The snow is a good touch. I can tell you're experienced at breaking up.

29. Breaking up with you
is going to be the hardest. I'll never find anyone better, and will spend the rest of my life regretting letting you get away.:cry:

Unlike yourself, I must try to get some sleep tonite. Good nite my sweet love. Morning will break early, with thoughts of you greeting me as I awake.

Sleep eludes me often; maybe I should just elude it first.

33. I once stayed up for five days straight, while in college
Trust me, you don't want to do this.

At first, the little hallucinations are kinda fun.

Then they go feral on ya.

34. That sounds bad
I had a bout of extremely low blood pressure in college. The whole world seemed like it was in 3rd person. I was disconnected from reality and felt like I was watching myself. Weird.

35. I just worked 36 hours in 2 & 1/2 days.
Night shifts no less (only one cup of coffee per night and nothign else). As I was leaving this morning, my boss is coming in and she tells me I still look "perky".

I have long evolved into a higher life form.
