Today will be inarticulate
Mar. 10th, 2008 10:29 amLast night I went to sleep with a headache, as I'm still recovering from a nasty cold.
I've grown accustomed to sleep without interruptions and love it tremendously, and last night reminded me of why: I woke up at 11 to the sound of loud voices in conversation, as members of the front house enjoyed some time in the hot tub. It didn't help that the hot tub makes a high-pitched whine when it runs. It has been quite a long while since I've been thus awoken, for which I'm grateful, because when I wake up just an hour or two after falling asleep, I always wake up angrily. That compounds the problem of trying to fall back asleep, because on top of hearing whatever noises have woken me up, I have to deal with the anger as well, hopefully without taking it out unfairly on anybody or anything. That sort of thing used to happen at least once a week when I lived in the front house, so I'm extremely happy that it happens quite rarely now.
Unfortunately, when I woke up this morning, I still had a headache, and it persists now. So I'll probably have to take some painkillers and do whatever is necessary just to get through the day.
