It's hard to sleep at night because I'm still wondering where my mother is.

It's hard to sleep at night because I'm still wondering where my mother is.

I couldn't sleep last night. The other night, too, just restless nights, hard to sleep, sickening.

The term papers make me more crazy, because they involve more variables I cannot directly control! With acting, I feel more power-like I'm making all the choices.

Private Lawson's mother told the (Arizona Daily) Star that she has been crying herself to sleep and is afraid for her son's life. I understand her pain. 'Don't ask, don't tell' impacts every service member -- gay and straight alike -- by creating a weapon to end careers and endanger service members through accusations, finger-pointing and rumor. Unless Pentagon leaders finally get a clue and lead the way in combating harassment and discrimination, I fear that attacks like these will continue to make headlines.

I lose sleep at night wondering whether we are intelligent enough to figure out the universe. I don't know.
