Open, eyeballs, open..for the day is not through and there's so much to do.

My eyes, currently, are feeling rather puffy and swollen from lack of sleep. I'm dog/house-sitting and I swear there is something seriously wrong with this animal. He is driving me insane!! I have a slight cold so every time I sniffle the dog runs over to me like he wants to kill me! He starts barking and growling and just keeps staring at me. I've known this dog for about a year or so and he's always been a little...off. However, this is the first time I've watched this house with him here. There's also two other dogs, Pepper and Lucky Boy, who are total sweethearts. They follow me around wherever I go and are just so happy to see me. But get this, the crazy dog, Bandit, watches me go into the bathroom. I shortly come out and then he goes ballistik!! (Forgive my spelling there..don't care to think about it ) He acts like he's never seen me before in his life and that I'm an intruder! So I stop and I just look at him, say his name, start talking to him. Then he gives a little wag of his tail and walks away....I tried sleeping, but every fifteen minutes or so he jumps up and starts barking like everyone in the house is dying!!! He is driving me nuts!
Soo.....here I am, writing to you guys. Thinking about my bodice that, quite sadly, will not be ready in time for the Renaissance Festival this weekend. I've been working on it so hard but I fear it still will not be done.
I went to bed this morning at about 2:45 and I woke up about three hours later to come over here to make sure the house doesn't fly away. I figured I'd probably take a nap when I got here because I slept so shortly before. However, I can't. The most I've slept is fifteen minutes. I took my valerian (just an herb, people) in hopes that it would make me tired enough that I wouldn't care about the dog barking, but it's not working. Instead it just makes my eyes feel like they're falling out.
I can't do any drawing because I was in a hurry this morning and didn't bring my stuff. I can't write, quite frankly, just because I can't think. Staring at blank walls really is not so much fun lol.

To my brain now must I think because I simply cannot sleep.
