The Incredible Edible Thumb

Dear Blog,

Today I woke with a start from my first sleep cycle and couldn't go back to dreamland. Outside, the commuters barreled down our street and the lawnmowers purred. Inside, I heard mommy clicking away at the computer. Meanwhile I couldn't sleep.

Wah!

My cries went unanswered. Then, to my right I noticed a five-fingered creature. Oh wait. Is that part of me? Could it be...my hand?

[Slurp, slurp, slurp.]

Zzzzzzz.
