I have a problem. I oversleep. Too much. It’s not that I am lazy, it’s just that sometimes I sleep through my alarm clocks (yes, I have two - I told you it was a problem). I really don’t know why I oversleep. I tried to look up my problem on WebMD and all they told me was that I was going to die sooner. Turns out, too much sleep is as bad for you as moderate obesity. Good thing I’m skinny or I might die like 4 times faster. I’ve never really found any good news on WebMD. Once, I convinced myself that I had at least two diseases. If you click around on that little human diagram long enough, you start discovering some whacked out illnesses!

I had to leave the site and resolved that I need God’s help on this one. I did have success today, though. I woke up at 6:30 a.m. and stayed up. Major success. Now that I’ve blogged about it, you can keep me accountable.

My name is Stephen Lechner, and I’m a recovering oversleeper.
