Jeopardy Contestant

caffeine circles my brain, loaded, laughing. i jolt upright in my sleep… lessness. the ride through time….woke up in pea-thick fog, drank two cups, went to church to pray and praise. chomped a burger, fries and freed some more caffeine from an ice cold cup. worked a Sunday after jet-lagged Saturday. arrived back home to hugs and laughter, and the napster who’d snooze before my return. promissory playdough date kept him rather late. downed a fluffy cup of mud and set out to take grands home. a rather wakeful day followed by a restless night…of this i write. seems i’ll be hitting the snooze button, like a jeopardy contestant. 11/26/2018

The jeopardy answer is "Sleep" Buzz. "What Kim needs." Correct for 600.00. : ) Nice one Kim.
