Two Nights

Two nights of un-sleep.   Toss, turn.  "Why does my heat pump sound funny?" Toss, turn.  "Perry, stop walking on my head!"  Toss, turn.  "Ow. Why does my bum shoulder have to be on the side I sleep on?"  Toss, turn.  Humph.  The upside being that I have all-night duty at the homeless shelter tonight and trying to sleep on an inflatable mattress amongst a chorus of snores, farts, flailing, and sleep-talking/shouting won't be any worse by comparison.

    1. Was quiet - we didn't have any major snorers in.

    1. I go through this periodically. You'd think I'd get used to it.

  3. Don't envy you that, but BTDT on the lack of sleep... Thanks for your willingness to help out!

    1. I like the people that come in, with all their quirks and problems.

      What's BTDT? Or will I figure it out when I finally wake up?

    1. No. Frustrating. And the more frustrated you get the less chance of going to sleep.

  5. Sleep deprivation sucks. Wish I knew what it was like not to have it.

    Take it easy, PH. Happy New Year!

    1. Yeah - there's a reason it's considered torture.
