I'm really tired today and the worst part is it's my own stupid fault.  I've been reading a bizarre but inspiring book called "One Red Paperclip" by Kyle Macdonald, the tale of a bloke who trades a red paperclip for something else, which in turn he trades again, and so on, with the ultimate aim of trading up to a house.  It's a true, and remarkable, story.  It is well written and real page turner.  So much so, that I stayed up late into the night reading it.  And on a school night too!

When I finally put the book down I couldn't stop thinking about the writer's adventures and found it very difficult to get to sleep.  However, when it finally came, I t was very short lived.  For as I drifted off to the land of z's, my mobile phone started beeping to tell me that the battery was low.  Why it couldn't let me know in the morning I'll never know!
