Actors Sleep in an Unrealistic Way
They actually look good when they wake up.
I don’t sleep well. Maybe that’s why when I see people on TV or in the movies wake up looking great, it irks me. Sure, maybe their hair is a little tousled, but that’s about it. They actually look refreshed and ready to hit the day with vigor. I can’t stand them!
As for me, I wake up looking like Rocky Balboa after he went 15 rounds with Apollo Creed. My hair is more than a little tousled. Each individual hair seems to have adopted an every man for himself mentality and decided to go in their own separate ways. Some even manage to escape the custody of my head and eventually exit via the shower drain.
In addition to hair issues, my breath and facial hair also need attention, unlike the Ken-doll dudes I see on TV and in the movies. Unfortunately, I need some caffeine in me before I can address these pressing issues. While most people take their caffeine in the form of coffee, I get mine via Diet Pepsi. I also like to have a little something to eat, but I don’t want anything too heavy. It also helps if it’s sweet. Therefore Little Debbie is a prime source of my morning nutrition. If Little Debbies or something of that sort isn’t readily available, some pizza from the previous night will do.
