I am so tired. We are chipping that stupid foam out of the inside of the tunnel and my arms are mush. Upper body strength is something I do not possess for longer than two seconds. Typing is exhausting.
Anyway, I want to talk about my eyes. Remember when I went to the eye doctor and he wondered why my eye was so chapped? I’ve got it figured out. I sleep with my eyes slightly open and since it’s summer, there is a fan blowing right on my eyes. I never noticed it before, but a couple of weeks ago I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn’t close my eyes. They were stuck in the ‘open’ position. It was unnerving.
I’ve slept with a pillow on my head for years and thought that was doing the trick of keeping them closed, but apparently it’s not. So now I am trying sleeping with a sock filled with rice on my eyelids. Weights ’em right down.
Take that, scaly eyeballs!

What you need is a couple of pieces of gold inserted in your eyelids.
No kidding -- we once sat next to a guy on a plane who had a piece of gold inserted into his eyelid -- he even let me touch it. (yes, it was a little weird.) Apparently he had some situation where he could’t shut his eye properly (an injury maybe?) so they inserted the gold to weight it down.

Maybe Lloyd could keep a spray bottle next to your bed and spritz your eyes periodically during the night.

So funny!
