Why I'm awake at 5 AM! (And me falling into a puddle)

Hi peoples, it's me! Well, of course it's me, who else would be posting on my blog?

Anyway, it's about 5 AM, and I still haven't slept at all. At this point, I've kind of decided I'm not going to. Honestly, I could fall asleep at any time I want, but I don't feel like it. I emailed Skyres about six times to see if she's awake, but she's not. So now I'm bored.

Who wants to hear a story?!

One day my friends and I were walking home from the mall. It had been raining, so everything was wet, and I was joking with Skyres about how I would probably trip over a ladybug before we made it home.

On the way home we had to cross a small field. At the edge of the field there was a kind of trench thing, from where people walked to school every day. Since it had been raining, the trench was filled with water and mud. Mostly mud.

One of my friends, who I am going to call Vampire Guy (inside joke), did this insanely awesome leap over a wide part of the water. Skyres also jumped over. I'm not very athletically skilled, and I'm kind of short, so it was pretty much impossible for me to jump over. Also, I'm a bit of a coward. And a klutz. I decided to walk to the smallest part of the trench, where there was only a trickle of water. I took one small step over the water, and next thing I knew I was on my back in the mud.

My friends, being the kind, caring people they were, stood and laughed at me for a few seconds before helping me out of the mud. During this time Vampire Guy also managed to fall. After making sure I hadn't been seriously injured, we all walked back to my house so I could change into some clean clothes. Now, whenever we pass that trench, we all burst out laughing, and I move as far away from it as possible.

That's a true story. It actually happened last June, which is why I'm still afraid of what I now call "Demon Puddle".
