Insomnia…
Posted on Friday, February 17th, 2012Not just a sword a character of mine used anymore…
I’m going to take a quick break from writing to talk to you about those nights. You know the ones. You have a cold so you haven’t been sleeping well for a few days. When you get home from a long day of shopping and driving after a longer day at work and after relaxing for about an hour you curl up in bed beside your significant other? You both promise yourselves that this is only going to be a quick little nap or that one of you will stay awake? Then you don’t and you wake up at 10 pm 11pm and you can’t get back to sleep?
Yeah, that’s my life today.
My husband is still sleeping in our comfortable bed where I will be heading after I finish writing this blog post. I have to work this morning, waking up to go to work in about 3 hours. I’m hoping that after I get another hour or so (and perhaps an energy drink for work) that I’ll be fine for most of the day and #FNTWP on twitter tomorrow tonight.
Not that this is a wholly odd evening. I’m just usually the one sleeping while my husband sits up with insomnia half-asleep playing video games. I tend to get annoyed at him when he’s like I am tonight. I know that it’s very hypocritical of me, to tell him to wake me up when I won’t wake him up in the same situation.
That, honestly, is one of the things that make me love him all the more. Not many men would be willing to deal with all of my idiosyncrasies including the times when I’m hypocritical… not when the rest of those little odd things include me writing/talking about writing nearly 24/7.
Anyways, I think its time for me to head back into my warm bed so that I see if I can find some minor amount of sleep before I have to wake up and work at my tiring, annoying day job. Also, here’s hoping that you all got the sleep you need.
