Finally got to sleep about 1 last night, damn timechange.

Woken up at 5 by ribbiting outside my window. Ribbiting. Outside my stupid window. I live in suburban SoCal. There are no lakes around here. No ponds. People don't even have backyards around here, they have four-foot-wide plots of grass on one or two sides of their trailers. So why the HELL was there a frog ribbiting outside? A bunch of frogs would've mixed together into a nice sound. One single frog ribbiting every few minutes served only to keep me awake.

Finally got to sleep again, woken up at 6:30 by mom throwing a plastic bottle outside, where it bounced merrily a few times amongst the other recyclables. Yep, we have large black garbage sacks of recyclables outside our trailer. Classy, no?

Finally got to sleep again, woke up at 8:30. Because my alarm was still set to 8:30 from vacation. Even though I need to get up at 7:30 on school days.

I have about half an hour before I have to leave. And I have yet to even start eating.

Why am I wasting time posting? I don't know...

The evil faeries who lived in the lakes that once were SouthernCal have decided to take revenge upon you by making noises outside your window and inconvenient hours.

Sometimes in the wetter months of the year here, we get frogs in the yard and other interesting places. I live right between about three lakes, so there's all sorts of interesting wildlife.

Unfortunately, the wetness is a bit too much for the crickets, and they try to hide out INDOORS!!! Just try sleeping through THAT.

My Older Sister has a formerly repossessed house with a pool in the backyard. When they moved in the pool was full of frogs. Even now a few get sucked into the filter during the summer.

I guess what I'm saying is a good way to get rid of a frog is a pool filter. Either that or a very hungry heron.
