Overbooked, Overtired
By Beth Beutler 		  
1     Sheila yawned during her ninth grade homeroom class. Mark playfully smacked her arm, saying, "Wake up, Sleepy!"
 
2     The teacher began to call out the names on her roll.
 
3     "Sheila."
 
4     "Here," Sheila said with a yawn.
 
5     After homeroom ended, Sheila slowly gathered up her book bag and stumbled out of class.
 
6     "What is wrong with you today?" Mark said.
 
7     "I am so tired," Sheila admitted.
 
8     "What time did you go to bed?" Mark asked.
 
9     "I went to bed around midnight, the same time I usually do."
 
10     Mark rolled his eyes. "And what time did you get up?"
 
11     "I got up about six o'clock, as usual."
