I lay down and automatically check Twitter, which is more like an impulse now. It's the first thing I do when I pick up my phone! After catching up on the nights tweets, I look for new music and watch a few videos most nights. When I'm satisfied, I turn off my lights.... This is when my brain goes into tornado mode.
I'm writing this post because I'm in tornado mode as you are reading... It all starts with a random thought, like something at school or a text massage or how much it hurts when I stub my toe on my nightstand (which happens to me everynight without fail). These thoughts spiral into other thoughts and before I know It I'm wide awake again, my head swirling with random thoughts and ideas!
The reason I am posting this now, at around 1:00 AM central time is because I know that whoever reads it, (I sure hope some of you read it) probably suffer from tornado brain as well! There is no stopping it, nor a cure for these late night thoughts, I have actually grown to appreciate them!
Sleep is a necessity, but I gladly sacrifice an hour or 2 everynight... For Tornado Brain! So for all you other insomniacs out there reading this for no other reason but sheer boredom, I feel your pain... And I thank you for your time! Now get some sleep!!!
I'm a victim of late night "tornado brain" too!
