You role over a number of times, left right left right back right left, after time you notice you still dont feel tired, you decide to try a trick that has never worked before and probably wont work again but you are in agony lying around for ages, you role onto your stomach, yup, this is the most unconvertible yet. hmmmm hmmmm, what to do, wank, watch tv, get a drink, have a smoke. these are all ok ideas a wank will burn of some energy and make you feel good for a while, watch tv is ok too if you dont mind the burning light against your eyes, and smoking is a good idea your heart rate will be up for a while and that will feel good to but you still wont be able to sleep try and think of nothing, thinking of nothing provokes strange thoughts. you will come up with wacky ideas that you can play with for a while and develop, (WARNING: the next day these ideas will seem absolutely ludicrous and you wont ever mention them to any one, but for now they are great). soon you will be forced to look at the clock, which is a definite no no your ideas will fade and you will get frustrated. now you tell your self that you are very serious and you need to sleep now, for that early morning. you lie there and open and close your eyes a few times, the CD you were listening to has finished and the only thing you can hear is the hypnotic hum of your computers fan's now you start to think about computers (dont you) but this is the worst thing to do if you are trying to sleep, if you think of something totally cool you will get really excited you build the idea and make big plans for your next free time to put your plan to action, which is all fine and good, although if your idea fails you will spend hours trying to make it work/get it right in some cases it will be great once you get it going, but more often than not its a waste of time and will leave you angry. back to the topic of sleep you feel too hot, so you pull back the sheet, um now to cold. your one pillow feels to thin, so you get another, um to high. anyway, the main point im trying to get across here is - When you cant sleep it totally sux. n0soul 15/10/01 /-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-\ Long Dark Tunnel 2001. - http://ldt.aguk.co.uk - ldt@hushmail.com \-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-/
