Good Morning, George, How Are You?

[ciroccoj]

Well, so much for that. I pretty much wasted half the night trying to get back to sleep or watching LOTR DVD extras. Orlando Bloom thinks that the friendship between Legolas and Gimli is 'sweet.' Was that worth losing four hours of sleep to learn? I didn't think so. So I think I'll try to make myself a good agenda so that I can keep myself going today on 3.5 hours of sleep.

When I remember that 3.5 hours used to be par for the course for me when the kids were 0-2 years old, I think nice warm thoughts about my fibroid tumours.

So far this morning, I have used two spoons to stir my tea, which is not too bad except they were both in the cup at the same time, and almost flavoured Chris' coffee with soy sauce instead of vanilla. We're off to a rousing start.

Mind you, he was no better this morning. I told him I'd been up most of the night, and that I'd even gone into the boys' room (where Chris had ended up some time before me) and stayed there for 45 minutes, hoping that some of their sleep would rub off on me. And because I was freezing.

"You should've lied down and snuggled up to us," he said.

"... I did. For forty-five minutes. ::pause:: What did you think I was doing when I was in the room? Just standing there, staring at all of you? For forty-five minutes?"

"... oh. Yeah, that doesn't make much sense, does it?"

On the bright side, you've started *my* morning with a good laugh. Thank you!

Also, ::hugs::

What? you mean soy sauce doesn't go well with coffee? :) lol.

I hear you about your state of tiredness! I've been fighting this #@%$&*! flu/cold bug and getting mighty tired from not being able to lie down and sleep. If I get within 10 degrees of horizontal, I start coughing, so I try to sleep sitting up - this translates to me doing a lot of reading. What I find annoying is that the coughing holds off for 10-15 minutes...just long enough for me to get sleepy...and then I'm awake. Sigh.

Good luck to you in your efforts to stay awake and productive. Wish me luck too!
