You have earned your sleep when...

...your hair and clothes are covered in sawdust, your fingers stained with...stain. You're sun burnt, but only on your neck and from your biceps down. You're so parched you gulp your drink disregarding the bug inside and your forehead is smeared with dirt from where your arm dragged across it to clear your sweat. You have a bruise across your knee and back muscles that ache. Your thumb has limited pain-free mobility and your skin feels dry and buffed. You have only managed to sand 1/5 of the kitchen and the stain you applied looks like generic cabinets from the 80s. You realize you are back to scratch.

See you on the other side, boys and girls, this chick has earned her sleep.
