The funny thing about sleeping pills is all of a sudden, unexpectedly, they hit you like a truck.

BLAM!

You're dead.

No thinking straight, no moving straight, nothing straight in particular.

It's this weird fake sleepy feeling that just makes you want to lie down and watch TV and fight it.

Naturally, any good teenager knows that the only way to do things is to fight what other people or pills are trying to make you do.

But I can't fight the good fight sitting up.
