OMG!™

It is Thanksgiving weekend and I managed to make it a 5-day weekend!
.
Insomnia continues and last night I took an exploratory drive to Sheepshead Bay. I find it calming to look at the water, even if from the car. It was cold and windy in Sheepshead Bay, last night
.
It's a nippy 48F in Brooklyn. Today will be windy with a mix of clouds and sun; and a high around 50F, with winds WNW 25-35 mph. Wind gusts to over 50 mph possible. Tonight will be clear to partly cloudy, low of 38F, and winds W 15-25 mph.
.
It's been a busy Thanksgiving, and I haven't left the City of New York.
.
We had quaducant, as well as turkey and ham, along with all the trimmings, including my newest fave Thanksgiving indulgence, green bean casserole.

Anna Nicole Smith was a walking train-wreck. There are train-wrecks I like to watch - that are entertaining; then there are train-wrecks that make me sad and uncomfortable. Anna Nicole Smith was in the latter category. Do you have a favorite train-wreck?
.
My favorite train-wreck is Amy Winehouse.

So, back to this insomnia thing. What do you do to sleep when sleep evades you?
.
Anna Gastaldi is my most recently added friend at Facebook. Who is yours?
