jake pov

About 10 minuets after I was brought into the nurses office, me and my 2 best friends just sat around talking and cheering. And about a few moments later the nurse came in and asked to speak to me.

"jake sweetie If you want you can go back outside to recess for the last few minuets of the day or just stay inside with your friends." Said nurse jones.

"Thanks nurse jones but I wanna go outside" I say trying to stand upright from the bed, evertime I move my upper body a sharp pain comes over me and I have to stop clench the pain and proceed standing every other second.

"Actually jake, I think you should just stay here in the nurses office" Tammy says with great concern holding onto my chest and back.

"Yeah man you are In no condition to go out and run around, and besides we'll stay in here with you" josh say rubbing the sweat off my forehead from my painful transiton.

"No, no guys I don't wanna play outside, I have to turn in my project to my teacher at recess. Thats why I have to go" I say dangling my feet from over the bed side trying to stand all the way up.

"Do you at least want us to come with you". josh said helping to my feet, I nod yes.

"Hold on a second sweetie you need to take this shot first before you can leave" nurse jones came up to me with a large needle, at first I was scared cause getting to close to needles made me uncomfortable but I relaxed as she poked it through my porcelain skin. The needle gave me a sharp pain making me clench to joshs's shoulder but after it was all over it was easy.

"There, that wasn't so bad now was it jake" Nurse jones smiled and I did the same. "Now you kids enjoy your day, and remember jake no hard playing till your bruises heal" she finished.

"I will thank you nurse jones" I say as josh guides me to the door.

"See you N.J" Josh says to the nusre.

"Goodbye" tammy says closing the door behind her.

I fling my arms over joshs' shoulders as he guides me down the hall towards my locker at the front of the school. I seperate joshs' body from mine and slowly limp to my locker. I reach over my head to grab my project at the very top shelf but my arms were so stiff and sore that they shook everytime I tried to jiggle my project free. I gave one last push and the weakness of my arms overcame me and I stumbled backwards nearly taking my project down with me.

"Jake look out" Josh and tammy run over to me tammy grabs me just before I hit the ground and josh ran over to grab my project before it hit the ground and smashed what was still left of it.

"Are you okay jake" Tammy helps me up agin.

"I'm fine my arms are just weak is all" I groan in pain. dusting off my jacket.

"Well not to worry your project is still fine" josh hands me my project hidden underneath the thick white sheet I had over it.

"Thanks dude you're the best" I smile taking my project into my hands and walking down the hall to the outside.

The whole school recess ground was covered in gnomes running, cheering, and playing around like the children they are. Most of the yonger kids were crowded next to the slides, swings, sandbox, and jungle gym. The middle school took the big open grassy feild by the baseball diamond where we all spent our time talking and chatting with freinds, some gnomes were listening to music, others were lying in the grass napping and just kicking back relaxing. And lastly the high schoolers took the basketball court side of the area most of the teen boys were playing 1on1 basketball, while a majority of them were sitting under the tall oak tree in the shade just sitting there looking pretty bummed out.

"So where do you have to take this project of yours again" tammy said looking around.

"Right over there" I point in the direction of a large banner that hung over a small area ecnclosed with lagre wooden platforms setted upright as to block all the nonproject gnomes out. We walk across the feild in the direction of the banner until tammy suddenly stops to take in the voice that just called her. she turns around to see her freinds from lunch all sitting in a small group along the ground giggling and readign those girly magazines.

"OH hi girls!" tammy waves back to them.

"Tammy come over here we're all waiting for ya" said one of the brown hatted girls in the cirlce. Tammy looks back and forth between me and hthe girls trying to make a decision.

"I can take it from here tammy you can go over to you're friends now" I say knowing she wants to go to see her friends.

"You sure, I don't have to if you don't want me to" She reconsiders.

"Totally, josh and me got this now you can leave already" I say making her go off and join her friends.

"Okay then see ya guys in a bit" She waves and runs back to her circle of girl friends as me and josh continue the way we were heading.

"Last call for the projects to be turned in" scalled out my project teacher as he dissapered with the rest of my class.

"Hurry josh before I'm late for turning this in" josh and I pick up the pace as we make it just in time. I race to my spot on the table where I was suppose to show my project to my teacher to be graded.

"PHEW, I made it just in time" I sigh wiping sweat from my head.

"Hey can you remind me what you're project is suppose to be about again" josh said still catching his breath from our dash here.

"The assignment was to build a scale model of what we think lifewill look like in the future if pollution continues at its random pace". I explain

josh nods and asks a 2nd question. "and what did you make your project look like?".

"Its basically the same as downtown gnome city is today only I may have added a few modifications to it" I say looking at the white sheet that still covered my project. "Of course if it wasn't for brad messing with me this morning and making me destroy half my project I would probably get the baest grade in class" I huff.

"I bet what you still have is worth a good grade" Josh reassures me. Thats when all around me go silent as my project teacher comes up in full view of us.

"Good afternoon class" says proffesor. jones. (btw; who is also nurse jones' husband)

"Good afternoon professor jones" The class says in unison.

"Okay class line up so I can view your projects" he says. We all stand up as he walks up one by one looking at the projects before him. I look up to all the other kids projects and there's are a lot more better projects than I had. I was considering just not even showing my project and walking away but josh stopped me.

"Don't worry you'll be fine" josh whispers to me.

"I seriously doubt that, I just know something might happen and, and then..."I start hyperventalating cause I was really freaking out.

Josh grabs hold of me and shakes me like crazy. "Whoa whoa jake, jake man calm down, what could possibly happen that hasn't happened already" josh reasons with me and i look to him with a smile.

"You're right thanks josh"

"ahem" We look up to our professor giving us weird looks we retract from our hug and clear our throats.

"Mr. morris, You're the last one" He says in his deep voice.

"Yes sir, I'm sure you're be very pleased with me" I say smiling confidently closing my eyes. prof. pulls the sheet from my project and gasps like I have never heard before.

"MR. MORRIS!" Mr, jones screams in anger to which I don'y understand. "what is the meaning of this" he shouts and points to my project.

"What I don't see what's wrong with...OH MY GOD!". My whole project was covered in thick black paint and feathers there was a mixture of rotten trash and junk mixed in and at the top in big red spraypaint it reed;

THIS IS WHAT GARBAGE THAT PEOPLE LIKE YOU PRODUCE, SUCKERS.

I look over to my professor who was getting read with anger.

"Sir I swear this is not my project at all" I plead with him

"OH NO, Then why was it under you're project name!" he scrameds again getting spit in my face, eeww.

"OK this is my project but this is not how it was when I made it honest"

"So then why does it look this way now, hhhmm explain that" She glares to me getting his voice back to normal with a bit more angry tone. I ponder for a moment and try to think of something reasonable.

"Actually...I-I really can't explain this at all" I shrug. "B-But if you let me redo my project i could..." mr. jones cuts me off.

He looks to me and starts to snicker. "You can't just redo it, once I see it there's no retrying" He says writting on his clipboard.

"But professor It you would just listen to me..." I try to convice him this wasn't my fault.

"There's no need jake, I accept this wasn't your fault" he says grinning.

"Really?" I say suprised, it wasn't like the professor to be that understanding before.

"Indeed I am". he states ripping off the paper from his clipboard. "Just as I'm sure you'll understand this grade for your project" He smiles evily and hands me the sheet of paper stamped with a big red F.

"An F!" I scream and look to my teacher.

"mm-hmm, congragulations you recived your first bad grade of the school year, and I see plenty more in your future" I look to him with a mean glare. "Enjoy your day boys" he chuclkes evily and walks away.

"Why of all the people..." I mutter the rest under my breath and rip up my grade to tiny shreds as they blow away in the wind. I pick up my ruined project and stomp away angrily.

"Oh come on jake it could have been worse" Josh says I stop in my tracks look to him and glare.

"How I wonder" I growl throught my teeth.

"Well you could have..." Josh stops in mid sentence trying to find and answer to my question. "...huh...I guess it couldn't get any worst, huh...sorry I got your hopes up" He laughs nervously and I roll my eyes and keep walking.

"But seriously I'm sure you're mum and dad could help you sort this out if you show them"

"I don't need their help on this, in fact there never gonna see this again" I say tossing my whole ruined project into the school dumpster and walk away like I couldn't care less.

"Well now that that problems taken care of what do ya say we go over and see what tammy's doing" I wrap my arm happily around joshs shoulder and walk off to the open grasssy feild where all our friends are.

"Hey tammy" I smile taking a seat next to tammy and her friends.

"Hi jake, josh, so how'd the project go" Tammy leans on my shoulders wanting to know I puff air and move cross my arms.

"I don't wanna talk about it okay" I groan in frustration.

"It didn't go very well" josh informs tammy and the other girls.

"Oh i'm sorry jake, I'm sure it couldn't have been that bad" she rubs my cheeck making me feel better.

"Yes It was, but I really don't wanna say anymore I think you could all respect that" I groan annoyingly.

"We do understand, right guys" tammy glares to them as they all simultaniously nod and agree.

"Thanks tammy you're the best" I hug her as all our friends stare and awa at the cute moment.

BEEEEEEEEEP! comes a large bell sound that could be heard all across the schoolyard.

"What was that!" tammy jumps a little and squeezes onto me.

"Attention students the school day is offically over, you are all free to go, have a nice day and see you all tommorow" The principals voice comes over the loudspeaker, concluding the school day and after the last beep the whole schoolyard was halfway empty. I walked throught the school halls to the main enterance where the bus is parked right in front. I follow tammy and josh inside while talking to the bus driver.

"Hey jake how are you doing, and what happened to you?"

"I'd rather not say" I reply and walk to my seat next to josh. I sit slouched in the seat looking past josh to the clear sky's in the window.

"HEY LITTLE BRO. I hear the voice of the ultimate evil, my vrother and his no good friends.

"Scram brad, I'm not in the mood" I shout and go back to blank staring.

"Woah someones upset, what's the matter runt you didn't like the makeover I did on your project" brad smiles evil high-fiving his friends.

"You trashed my project, do you have any idea what that cost me of a grade!" I snarl with rage.

"What ever serves you and your troublemaking friends right" he laughs all the way to the back of the bus. I stare with fire in my eyes and pound my fist behind me on the already worn out seats.

"I tell you what if anyone's the troublemaker here its him" josh whispers to me just as angry and I just nod and slump in my seat.

10 minuets later the bus pulls up in front of the corner of our block. A majority of the kids get off here including me and brad.

"see ya later man" I say to josh as i high five him.

"call you later" he says to me.

"Bye jake" tammy smiles on the other side of me.

"Later tammy" I wave and walk off the bus still upset. I walk down the block to our house as the bus passes me by, I look back and see josh wave to me throught the window as the bus dissappers around the corner. I gine one big loud sigh and walk up to my house and open the door.

"I'm HOME!" I shout when I get inside.

"I'M IN THE KITCHEN" my mum calls to me. I walk in the kitchen to see my mum pouring a glass of milk and a plate of desserts.

"Hi sweetie" she walks up and kisses my forehead. while i keep my head down. "you want a brownie and milk" she holds the plate dowb to me. I nod No refusing to look up.

"Whats the matter sweetie is something wrong" I keep my head down and nod yes. "something happen at school?" I nod yes again. "You wanna talk about it?" I nod no.

"Come on sweetie, you can tell me what's wrong, I'm your mother" She holds my cheecks and I pull my head up showing the briuses on my face and my bruidsed eye.

Mum gasps and steps back a few feet from me as I start to cry and cover my face.

"Jake..oh my poor baby what happened to you!" she said leaning closer to me again. I couldn't bring myself to say anything I just looked into her soft brown eyes and kept on crying, I leaned on her shoulder and left tear stains on her nice clean yellow blouse. I felt her rubbing my back trying to calm me down, I stopped trying to cry for my mum sake but I just ended up crying even more.

"It's okay honey, whatever it is you can tell me, I'm your mother I know what's best" I lean from her shoulder still with tears in my face and look to her. In her eyes I saw that she wanted to help me and I really did want her to help me but I just couldn't find the right words to say. I opened my mouth to speak but then the kitchen door flung open and guess who was there laughing like a maniac.

"HAHAHA awww look at the big sissy baby cradled against his mummy how cute" Brad made a lot of baby noises that got me really upset, I pushed from my mums grip and right past brad upstairs to my room. I kicked open the door and flung onto my bed kicking and screaming and throwing a big tantrum. I calm down after a while but I still was very upset. There was a knock on the door and I snarled and growled.

"GET LOST WHOEVER IT IS!"I shout. the last thing I need is to be bothered right now.

"jake its me" I hear my mum say in her soft voice. "sweetie please open up" she says to me, I walk over to the door and open it just a crack letting my mum conme inside. I slump back in bed putting my face in my pillow.

Mum sits next to me and rubs my tummy "Sweetie you wanna talk about what happened today"

"NO!" I scream through my pillow.

"Why not?" she says more demanding.

"YOU WOULDN'T UNDERSTAND!" I shout through my pillow again, making it come out all muffled.

"I'm your mum jake I think i would understand" I she says boastfully, making me roll my eyes. I knew I had to tell my mum sooner or kater and she always seemed to understabd me when I was sad about alp the other things in my life so why should this be any diffrent, and I figured it was better than keeping it inside me for any longer.

I sit up in my bed and lean my head on my mums shoulders. "OK but promise me this will stay just betwen us" I beg and mum nods.

"well you see what happened was..."

I go on for about half an hour telling mum everything that happened today. when i finished she had a look on her face that showed, anger, happines and sadness. I didn't look at her directly for a moment until she spoke again.

"Well sweeteie all I can say is I am...very proud of you" she said holding me.

"you are?" i say confused. "Even after all that I told you"

"Well I'm not happy about you fighting with boys older than you are, or the fact that you got got your brother in trouble...but I am proud to know you did it all to help a friend and I love you for that" she smiled and gave me a big kiss.

"well you did tell me to stand up when something isn't right" I sat stating something she told me once before.

"And that lets me know how good a job i did raising you" She grins as we hug while she rocks me back and forth. that when something or should i say someone came abd spoiled it

"AWWW, I told you you were a big baby" Brad laughs seeing mum cradle me in her arms like she did when I was small.

"Shut up!" I yell between mums arms, brad sticks out his tounge to me and I twitch in mums arms trying to go hit brad but mum grip was to tight.

"Brad leave your brother alone and go to your room, you and I still have a talk to deal with' Mum says angrily.

"About what!" he says sipping his milk.

"jake told me what you did at school and I am very upset with you right now!' he says pointing. brad coughs up his milk and looks to me.

"You told her...YOU LITTLE RAT, YOU ARE SO DEAD!" brad stomps into my room mum stands up as a I back away to the wall that rests against my bed.

"Stop right where you are or you are gonna be in more trouble young man" Mum screams making brad stop and retreat back.

"NOW GO TO YOUR ROOM AND WAIT FOR ME THERE!" mum demands in her harsh voice. brad gives me one more look and walks outta sight, i sit aginst the wal whimpering like a puppy.

Mum walks back and pats my head. "You have nothing to worry about anymore sweetie" mum whispers to me as i retract from my curled up state.

"You can stay in here till its time for dinner okay" she says giving me a kiss on my hat. I nod and she walks out the door. I sit in my bed curled in fetal position staring at the floor trying to get this whole ugly day outta my mind,

knock knock

I look to the door and see mum again this time with a small plate and a glass in her hand.

"I thought you might want a snack later" she sets the plate and milk down on my nightstand and walk back out closing the door making my room go dark purple aside from its regular purple color.

I grab a small brownie from the plate and nibble at it. I stay in the darkness for a while till my whole plate of brownies and milk is gone. That whole plate went right throught me and it was starting to irritate my stomach. I dashed right into the bathroom and let it all out.

"what a relife" I sigh in happiness. I walk out the bathroom and guide myself back to my room, My ears catch the sound of brad and mum agruing and my curiosity got the better of me. I tip over to brads door and listen.

"AND YOU CAN'T STAY OUT LATE FOR THE NEXT 2 MONTHS" says mum.

"BUT THAT'S SO UNFAIR" brad replies.

"WELL MAYBE YOU SHOULD OF THOUGHT OF THAT BEFORE YOU MESSED WITH YOUR BROTHER" mum complains.

I hear brad rumble and groan in anger and I begin to quietly snicker. "serves him right" I say slididng down the wall and cracking up.

"AHEM!" I hear a voice from behind me , I look to see my mum with a smug face on.

"So uh,...what'd ya say to him" I smile nervously.

"nothing that concerns you, now back to your room before you get grounded like he did" she points to the end of the hall.

"Yes ma'am" I salute and race back to my room. I sit down on my bed and stare out the window listening to all the sounds from the mean streets of gnome city fill my ears. I

I don't know how long I was daydreaming outside but by the time I come out of it I hear a pound on the door that makes me fall from my bed.

"OH UH YES" i shout to the door.

"Dinnertime jake" mum calls.

"Okay I'm coming" I say getting off the floor and walking to the door where my mum greets me with a big hug.

"Hey stranger long time no see" She jokes knowing I saw her over an hour ago. She grabs my hand and leads me down the halls. The food in the kitchen smelt really good as I keep walking with mum, at the same time we get to the bottom the doorbell rings.

"wait a second sweetie" She lets go of my hand and walks to the door. She opens it to reveal a familiar face walk inside.

"guess who's home!" he says picking up my mum and twirling her around.

"hello to you to richard" she says kissing him

"DAD!" I shout running to my dad as he lifts me off the ground.

"HEY, hows my little man" he says putting me ion the ground tussleling my brown hair.

"You came just in time for dinner" mum says grabibng my hand and walking into the kitchen.

"BRAD TIME TO EAT!" dad shouts upstairs and followss us. The table was full of food as it usually was, mum really likes to spoil us when It comes to food.

"wow mum you cooked a lot" I say looking to all the food that surrounds me.

"Well I have 3 boys in this house I need to keep full" she says standidng next to dad.

I take my seat across from them as mum places my plate down next to me. I pick up my fork and stab into my steak trying to rip a piece of it off.

"Smaller bites jake, take bites" Mum says a bit annoyed at me.

"Sorry mum" I sat spitting the steak out and cutting bites.

"Jake why do you have bruises on your face" Dad says looking to me in the clear kitchen light. I put my fork down and sigh getting sad.

"Thats okay sweetie you don't have to say it, I'll tell you're dad later ok" mum say making me nod again.

mum starts making another plate and walks with it out of the kitchen.

"Where you going with that plate" dad says.

"Taking it to brad" mum says angrily.

"Why he can get his own plate" dad states.

"Not this time, he's being punished" mum says more hasrsly.

Dad rubs his eyes in frusrtation and sighs loudly. "What he do this time" he says irritated.

"Why don't you talk to him, but I'll tell you this because of his actions, my poor jakey had to get hurt because of it" mum sighs sadly and walks to give brad his food. Dad looks to me and puffs loudly and goes back to eating. mum returns in no time just as i finish my plate, she takes a seat next to dad and looks down angrily.

"whats wrong" dad says.

"I just don't know what to do with that son of ours" She huffs and lies on dads shoulder.

"Oh well...there is that option we talked about before" dad gave a pleading stare.

"Richard for the last time we are not sending brad to military school" mum said annoyed.

"but it would b such a good way to teach him a little disipline" dad argued.

"I agree with you dad" I say wanting to get rid of brad as much as he did.

"The answer is no to both of you!" mum announces as I sigh a bit.

"So you wanna tell me about what happened today jake" dad says looking to me.

"not really" I sat playing with my food scraps.

"that's ok honey why don't you go upstairs to bed I'll tell your dad". mum says I stand from my chair and stretch.

"Goodnight mum, dad" I yawn and walk off.

"goodnight son" dad says.

"night sweetie" mum blows a kiss to me.

I walk up the stairs and into my room slilently closing the door, I put on my purple pj's and slip into bed. I get ready to lie down when I hear this horrible deafening sound of loud music blast throught the walls

"AAAAAHHHH" I scream plugging my ears. I open my door and the sound becomes even louder, It didn't take me long to find the sound was coming from brads room and I stomp in anger.

"Oh give me a break!" I rumble. I stomp over to his door and bang violently on it. the music stops and he opens the door.

"Oh It's just you ya little runt" he snears at me.

"TURN DOWN THAT HORRIBLE MUSIC YOU NEARLY DEAFENED ME" I shout un folding my ears.

"You call it horrible, I call it AWSOME" he says putting his hands up and making an idiot of himself.

"I don't care what you call it just turn it down" I complain.

"And what 'll you do if I don't" he smirls to me. I raise an eyebrow to him and grin evily.

"MUM,DAD!" I scream. mum and dad come running upstairs

"what wrong" mum say bending down to me.

"Brad was playing his music to loud and It hurt my ears" I whine in my baby voice.

"Brad I told you you weren't allowed to play your music now hand it over." she says reaching out her hand.

"Dad tell mum that's not fair" brad pleads.

"After what your mum told me about what happened today I agree with her, now do as she says this instant" dad glares at brad who gets really angry. he takes his music and hands it to mum who walks away with it, brad gets upset and slams his door making my ears vibrate.

"Hey easy, my ears already hurt enough as it is" I cry rubbing my aching ears.

"Do you want me to get you some ear medicine son" dad says

"no thanks, I just wanna go to bed" I said tiredly and walk off.

"I can't wait to sleep this day off" I grumble and flop into bed.

For some reason I can't seem to get to sleep, usually I can sleep in and out like a light but this time I couldn't. I had a lot of things on my mind and was to upset to really do anything, I was really sleepy but I just couldn't find it in me to sleep, so I did what I normally did when I had trouble sleeping, I sung a song. I always sung a specific song a song that I knew my whole life. It was the very 1st song that I ever heard and i knew it all pretty well. It was the only song that made me happy when I was really depressed. (club can't handle me by flo rida)

That was my all time favorite song, just hearing it made me feel good. I loked to sing it when I was alone, trie I wasn't very good at singing but it still made me happy. But the one thing I always wondered was how I even knew that song, mum never sung to me, when I was a baby she and dad always put lullabys on the radio and I would fall asleep to that. Once when I was 5 I asked her to sing this song to me but sje didn't know it very well and kept messing up on all the verses, so I just learned how to sing it myself and ever since I did I always had a special thing to calm me down whenever I felt sad.

Not so soon after I finished the song I was beggining to drift off. I had a long lousy day and I just wanted to put it all behind me. I pulled up my sheets and snuggled up onto my pillow.

"I can't wait to sleep this whole day away". I sighed and fell fast asleep. Having the most unusual dream. But it felt like more than a dream, as if it was some sort of flashback into my infant years.

My dream

I was cradled into the arms of a red hatted girl with short carmel brown hair and bright green eyes just like me. she had a very pretty face and nice red lips. she leaned in closer to me and kissed my forehead allowing me to get a smell of her icy peppermint breath. she looked as if she was crying cause she had tears on her cheecks but she somehow still found a way to smile

"oh jakey I love you so much" she said with a voice like silk. I couldn't put my finger on it but her voice sounded like a voice I had heard before.

"I will always cherish these first few precious moment i had with you in your short 2 weeks of life." she had such a pretty voice, but i didn't know who she was or what she was talking about. She kissed me one more time and then passed me over to another gnome.

This gnome was male, with a big blue hat, blue eyes and blonde hair, actually he kinda looked a lot like me.

"Son I know you will grow up into a great person, and my only regret is that I won't be around to see it" he had such a strong voice yet it was at the same time familiar as well. He paused and continued.

"whereever you end up after this day just remember that I will always love you" he cried a little and then passed me back to the red girl.

"I hope you will always remember the sound of my voice when i sang to you that one special song as i will always remember you in my heart, I will always love you so very much" she cried onto my blanket and set me down in the very same basket I used as a baby. she stood back up as the blue gnome came back and pulled what looked like a necklace around me. Inside it showed a picture of me and of the 2 of them.

"A little something to remember us by" the blue gnome said as he put my teddy next to me and picked me up inside my basket.

There was a big steak of lightning and everything went black. When I opened my eyes It was raining and thunder and lighting cracked in the sky, the raindrops kept falling on me and there was nothing for me to cover with. I saw those two red and blue gnomes stand over me abd the blue was holding an umbrella. the red set me down still crying her eyes out. she kissed me once more and the blue gnome kneeld down and patted my head. they both stood up straight and started to cry.

"Goodbye sweetie, I love you" the red girl said in her same silk voice.

"Take care of yourself" said the blue boy. they both snuggled close to each other and without another word dissapered, but I could still hear there sad crying in the distance.

Then there was another streak of lightning and thats where my dream ended.

My eyes flung open and I pooped up in bed, looking around my room and out the window, there was not a sond to be heard out there. I leaned over to my clock, which read 3:53 am.

"What a strange dream" I whisper aloud and lay back in bed, shortly falling into a deep sleep once more. I had kept wondering why I had that dream, could It have been somethig of my past, and who were those two gnomes, my memory of them was vauge but I felt as if I knew them from somewhere. like they had once been apart of my life at some point and then just dissappered from it. I give a loud yawn and fall asleep once more. maybe thinking of sorting this out in the morning.
