Insomnia

Tuesday night I didn’t sleep well. I’m at home on my own with the cats for company, and so maybe it was them disturbing me – I really can’t remember. Last night I kept being woken by one of the cats, so decided to get up and work for a bit. I went back to bed at 2:45 and slept until another cat decided he didn’t want to sleep.

And now tonight, just when I was dropping off to sleep I was woken up by a beep. Mobile phone? Cordless phone? PDA? Nope, so back to bed. BEEEEP. Drifting off. BEEEEP – every three minutes.

So I tried to identify in which room. It’s loudest in the bedroom but doesn’t sound like it’s in there. Listen to the neighbourr wall – not that either. Try and sleep. BEEEP. Drift off. BEEEEP. And then a cat started.

So it is now 3:50, I haven’t slept properly since Monday and I’m feeling a bit the worse for wear for it. Part of me says get a coffee now…
