MISSION IMPROBABLE

Tuesday Nov. 6, 2018

Just one of those nights.

Got to bed at a decent hour, about 9:30 – turned on TV, channel-surfed. Awoke at 2:00AM, TV still on. Turned it off, turned over. And over. And over. One of fewer nights when sleep eludes me.

Couldn’t get back to sleep. TV on again, in hopes it would drone-me-off to sleep again …

Best choices were middle of the night news or re-run of a Mission Impossible movie. Seemed perverse given ‘getting back to sleep’ on nights like these is surely mission improbable.

It’s not so much that I mind the shortened sleep – I’ve been sleep deprived most of my adult life, but this last couple of years I’ve found my sleeping longer has amped-up my productivity so much I’ve been a huge sleep fan …

To sleep, perchance to rest!
