My Lame December the 29

I wrote this one night while I was very sick. I was so bored and my boyfriend was ignoring me cause he had to watch a stupid Terminator movie. It was quite lame and pathetic. So I wrote a poem. It technically takes place on December the 28, but as I say in the poem, I was tired and bored. Not to mention I was really, really sick.

It's half-past midnight.
The day is now December the 29.
I'm tired and bored
But my man is still wide awake
Watching some lame-ass Terminator movie.
I wish I could be all warm,
Tucked snuggly in my bed,
Him next to me, my head on his chest
While his heart beats lullabies;
Singing me to sleep.
But no, I write poetry instead.
My day was long.
I just read all day
About "living impaired" hooking up with the living.
My head pounded and ached.
I ate a bowl of Golden Grahams.
My cat, she did save me,
From an itsy, bitsy spider
By nomming on it whole.
Not to be a whiner,
But I just ached...
The whole flippin' day.
An oober hot shower
Made me feel just a little bit better.
I went back to reading
My teen romance-supposed-to-be-horror-ish book
Wishing the spinning
Would just disapparate.
8 O' Clock came.
My boyfriend would be off work soon.
To dizzy to drive, but not wanting him to walk,
I compromised and walked to him.
We stopped at a grocery store on our way home.
Grabbed a frozen pizza
And his mom called.
She requested that additional people
At our home, be gone!
Then the boyfriend wanted a movie.
That stupid Terminator movie
Was the one he grabbed.
I complained,
So he grabbed Star Trek, too.
We came home and kicked the extras out.
My man put in the pizza
And Captain James T. Kirk as well.
I ate a slice and a half.
Now I feel like a nerd,
But I guess that's cool.
Nerds will someday rule the world!
The movie is still playing
And I'm at the end of my day.
A poem, two pages long, (on paper that is.)
Wow, some life I have.
