Local insomniacs to picket.
Continued on page B6
Northfield, NJ -- Local 27 year old, Wombat, fell asleep at approximately 6:30 in the evening last night only to wake up at a little past midnight.
"Yeah, I made myself a fluffernutter and played a sitn'go online. I didn't win."
At this point, Wombat went back to bed where he laid for about 20 minutes, tossing, because he made himself anxious about girls and money.
"It happens, and I don't know how I calmed myself enough to fall back to sleep."
But, sleep he did. After the anxiety subsided, he fell asleep and didn't wake up until 930 the next morning.
We asked Josh Francis, leader of the local Insomniacs Society (chapter 52), what he thought of this.
"It's a real blow to our cause. I mean, he was the best. Going for weeks without sleep. Constantly groggy. Dull wit. It's a shock. It's just a shock." When asked if they felt happy for him: "Hell no. He's out of the club, er, uh, you know... Society."
The IS plans on picketing outside of Wombat's house tonight.
"That's fine," says Wombat. "I don't live there anymore."
