I managed to stay in bed until 9 this morning, drifting in and out of sleep for a few hours. I think the fan helped, with its soothing white noise, and also that I was so tired by 10 last night that I couldn't see straight and literally stumbled between my room and the bathroom while preparing for bed.
During one of my drifting-out moments, I thought how when bed is a lonely place, it makes me want to leap out of it as soon as I'm semi-conscious. Maybe that's part of the problem. And then I had a dream (or maybe I had a dream before this) that there were two other people in bed with me. Nothing sexual, just comforting company and soothing warmth. Skin to touch and words to share.
This morning the Gesticulatron made me smile, and my stripey socks made me smile, and I strutted a bit in the sunshine on my way to get my coffee.
