To sleep, perchance to dream

[caddyman]

I find myself in that awkward position of feeling tired, but not wanting to go to bed just yet because I am fairly certain that I will just end up lying there staring at the ceiling rather than dozing off. I reckon another 30-45 minutes should do the job and then I'll turn in. I get the whole of the bed tonight, so I can spread out a bit. Whether or not that will make any difference or not I don't know, but at least I can be restless safe in the knowledge that I am not ruining anyone else's sleep.

There was a time when I could doze off at any time: sitting, slouching sprawling or lying on my back, stomach or either side. These days I can only go to sleep properly if I lie on my right side and even if I roll around in my sleep (which I must, even if only rarely, judging by the occasional knotted duvet), I wake up on my right, too. Dunno why. Oh well.

Things are building up at work again as they always do this time of year. The Monster is being unco-operative again, so our generously timetabled activities are beginning to telescope. I have already had my first burst of indigestion, though it's too early to say whether or not I will get it as a fixture for a fortnight or so like I did last year. I hope not, I don't enjoy three courses of Remegel as a meal.

I miss my girl already and she only left this morning.

I tell you what, though. I LIKE this new keyboard!

Yeah, they recently gave us new PCs at work, and the groovin' little extracurricular buttons on the keyboard are mucho fun. Let's see, there are media buttons that take you to the next or last song/video/photo, or just pause the things. There's one that pops up My Documents, another for My Pictures and one for My Music, but the one for Mail vomits up the wrong prog entirely. Pah, rubbish! My favourites are Web/Home and a cute recessed one labelled Sleep, with a little crescent moon on it, which locks the PC when you go to lunchy so no interfering pillocks can "work" here when you're out, and bugger your settings.

I love technology.
