Day Ten - Sleeping and self appriciation

These two topics are two that most people (I'd imagine) wouldn't put together, finding a link between the two. to inter-wieve two, seemingly random, topics would make as little sense as this first sentance..... and yet I'm going to try!!

Why?? I hear you cry.

Well, to out it simply, they are both things that annoy me.... and I mean the lack of. (that and both were relivent to yesterday and so are in my mind)

The sleep is an easy thing...... i.e. - I find it very hard to get to sleep.... and once I'm asleep I end up waking up several times throughout the night, but by the time my alarm clock goeoff in the morning, can I get up?? No!! Why?? Cause I'm really tired!!! It's an endless circle. For some unknown reason when I go to bed my mind just doesn't want to. Freed of having to do the daily grind of making sure I don't fall over and stuff it slips into a world of my own making, a cool fantasy world where alll sorts of things happen...... but I'm not asleep!!!

I also find it really easy to sleep on the sofa with the tv on..... I can be there, barely able to keep my eyes open, go to bed and then lie there for a couple of hours, wondering where the sleepiness went. Very annoying!!!

And that's that over........

Now twice in the last week I've had a couple of friends bemoan the fact that not only are others prettier than they, they infact aren't pretty enough to get themselves a man.... This to me seemed fairly stupid (maybe it's because I'm a man, I don't see this) especially as they are pretty.

It's one of those great "stupid" beliefs that women seem to have (I mean this in a really nice way!!), that if they are single (and sometimes even when they're not) that they aren't pretty, or attractive and they're going to end up as spinsters, left on the shelf of life for all time. And I don't get it.

Of course, there is this tiny cynical part of me that wonders (as it does) as if this was all done on purpose, as they knew that I would protest, tell them that they were being silly and that they were attractive.

I feel so used......... so no different from normal then!!! ;)
