When you suffer from insomnia like I do, you tend to eat really strange things. Take last night for example......I got a total of about 0 hours of sleep and now I feel deadbeat exhausted.....I can't go to sleep because it's broad daylight, and I don't wanna waste another day sleeping. So what do I do? I eat things that keep me awake......anything but narcotics or stimulants (I hate taking pills). My diet is unusual....I eat different things than what most people would eat, thus explains my messed up mind. Anyway, where was I? ah yes.....food. My morning breakfast today consisted of a mix between stuffed green olives (from a jar), unsalted pecans, a Korean Hot pepper, korean-style pepper paste, a piece of pickled garlic (yes, you read right) and an over-boiled, homemade cappuccino with milk and tons of sugar, yes SUGAR!!! not the crappy Sweet 'n' Low stuff, mind you, but the real deal....the real, crystalline brown sugar chunks you can only find at the store. Anyway, that was it....and let me tell you, the Korean Peppers are what really gets me going!!! They don't call Korean peppers "hot" for nothing......hell, if you're a sissy, one bite of a raw pepper will kill you, no joke. Add the korean hot pepper paste and you've got a one-way ticket to Hell in your mouth!!! Anyway, this illustration basically captures the plight of your average insomniac and details a typical night's "sleep". Alot of the things I put in there aren't real (obviously) but let me tell you, nuts and olives are one of the BEST combinations you'll ever find in the food kingdom........if you haven't tried it already, I highly suggest you go out and buy yourselves a jar of olives and some raw nuts and eat them together.....you'll know what heaven tastes like. But again, I digress.....this pic captures what insomniacs go through every night....the blank feeling they get, staring for hours at a wall for no reason, till their eyes get as big as the ones in the picture......eating is just part of the atmosphere, to keep us sane until morning. And the problem of not getting enough sleep gives us ample time to catch up on other things.....like, other things...........
I used black ink and a single ink blade to do this.
