Vagueness and the Aftermath - A sporadic diary

[tikay]

I have a great sleep pattern these days.

Sleep for me used to be nothing more than an inconvenience, but lately it's become quite enjoyable.

I arrive at bedtime absolutely shattered, but a nice, aching but earned it type of shattered. I go to bed and I'm asleep in minutes.

I sleep deeply, and yet at the same time I'm aware enough to know that I'm enjoying it.

I wake up early,  usually around 5 or 6am, and I feel wonderful. Fully recharged, and enthusiastic about the day ahead.

Nowadays, I do my best work in the mornings, so I fling myself into the day because I know that,  like an old phone battery that's had a lot of heavy use, I don't hold my charge as well as I used to.

By mid afternoon, my reserves are getting low, and although I can still power through if I have to, I function best with a little top up charge.

Oh, and the very occasional 'lie in til 10' deep cycle.

Exactly the same here.

I think humans are like batteries - with age, their useful daily life shortens.

I really need that recharge every afternoon.

Bedtime at night is heaven - am always shattered, & sleep well - 5am next morning, BOOM, everything is ready to go.

This is a clicker trained Main coon.

I don't agree with clicker training. I wonder if they would train by conventional voice driven correction / reward methods given their lack of pack instinct?

What is clicker training, & why do you disagree with it?

For RedsGirl, & Claw.

If you dislike Forwewords, or previews on covers of books, don't read "Killing Kennedy".

As with Tighty's "Why two kettles?" it's a simple question with a complex answer. (Well, probably more rambling rather than complex)

I will file it under "stuff I want to write about when I have the time" and get back to you.

I've been pondering Shakespeare phrases that might be relevant to tikay, just to start him off steady like.

How about:  Once more into the bleach, dear friends....

Is this a digger I see before me

I've always hoped that World of Camping or some other outdoor supplies type of shop chose to use Richard III as an inspiration for a way to advertise a sale:


Now is the window of our discount tents...

Makes me smile anyway.

I enjoy sleep now but my mrs informs me I have become a snorer, apparently a heavy snorer, and the notion mildly disgusts me. In the morning she looks at me in accusing fashion and I feel guilty. I tell her to wake me up if it happens but she refuses to do so. I find this is a heavy price to pay for enjoying sleep.

Would she buy "Whenever I'm snoring, I'm dreaming of you, dear"?
