Insomnia

I’m expecting twins this coming May. With every pregnancy some discomfort is expected, but every morning at 3am these babies wake me up, and I don't return to sleep. Insomnia- I’m not so sure that’s what you can call this...When you’re sleeping peacefully and wake up to kicking or an abundance of movement, it's not insomnia. I can cure insomnia but this is not curable.

What do you do at 3am? I start to think of old things that made me happy. One of the things I remembered is a show call Insomniac with Dave Atell. This show used to be my late night snack, on days I really couldn’t sleep, he would give me something to laugh at. Dave would travel to bars, strip clubs, clubs and other places open at crazy hours in the morning (city trash dumps, warehouses, etc) in cities all over North America and some foreign countries. He would talk to anyone and make them apart of the show. It didn’t matter if you were drunk, striper, trash man, homeless, cross dresser, bartender, or just walking down the street and cross his path, you will be apart of the show. If you didn’t get anything educational out of this show you did figure out where to hang out at 4am in most cities.

It’s a shame it only lasted three years. Here’s one of my favorite clips.
