5. Brainstorm topics for your blog.
6. Think about turning on the TV to catch the late night viewing of Rosanne, but then realize you, once again, can't move your arm.
7. Stare through the crack of your door, out into the hallway, and swear you just saw something move out there.
8. Play "kick the cat" as it tries to make a bed out of your legs.
9. Realize your arm has just went numb and you can no longer feel your fingers.
10. Pray that your baby will sleep through the night soon!
