now, first if you know me well, then you know that i am a night owl. i am always up late. i love the night time when my kids are asleep and i can do what i want. i also happen to love the tv shows that are on late at night. david letterman is my favorite!

last night, because i was sick and because i was ready for bed early, i went to bed at 9pm. after a few minutes of texting with mike, i finally settled in for, what turns out, was the worst night’s sleep i have had in years. ugh.

first, no one expected me to be in bed. no one. i never go to bed early. nope. never. so that means my phone continued to ring and beep for hours. calls and texts. and i was not upset with anyone, because i love hearing from people. but i was interrupted until well after 11pm. i guess i slept soundly for a few hours, but around 1:30, i was jolted awake by some strange dream. i don’t remember anything about it, except that it woke me up!

i was again awake at 3:35, 4:00, 5:30, 6, 6:30 and finally my alarm went off at 6:45. ugh. no one called. no one texted. those times are just when i checked the time because, yet again, i was awake.

so, what have i learned from this? you guessed it… no more going to bed early! lol i have no idea what was the true cause of my sleeplessness/interrupted sleep. normally, i fall asleep and am OUT until that alarm blares.

perhaps i was just not really tired. i mean, i fell asleep quickly enough… but i don’t know that i ever reached the deep levels of sleep that provide rest. i don’t know. it could also have been my cold… coughing or drainage just enough to keep me awake.

anyway, whatever it was, i think it’s safe to say that tonight, i will be watching david again. 😀
