Ai, what a night

[crazysoph]

It's not every night that dear_hubby comes late to bed, and many times, this doesn't even bother me. But for some reason last night, the entrance of himself to the bedroom jarred me from a sound sleep. That would be the first sleep-cycle disturbed then, urk.

Here's to a better day, eh?

Yes!

^-WSS!

This is the kind of journal I really enjoy, actually - this kind of window-gazing into someone else's life, complete with details about worrying about your partner on narrow stairs in the dark (if he's anything like me, though, I can manoevre down my steep and narrow stairs in the dark without difficulty) and absently pouring the coffee into the bin.

[crazysoph]

I love those kinds of details myself, so in that sense, I try to write what I also enjoy reading, in so far as I'm tailoring the writing... it's mostly looking for a particular feeling while I write, a feeling I suspect most of my "oh, I don't think I have an interesting life" aren't really acquainted with. The author of Writing Down the Bones and Wild Mind coined the phrase "twice lived", what writers do with their lives - live them once, then again with the recording of them, or rather, trying to convey to someone who is not him/her what the experience of that moment was like.

Not to mention, the blatant search for sympathy when I pull such a bone-headed manoveur as pouring coffee in the wrong place. *grin* Sharing does lighten the load.

I'll just cringe when you do that here, if I'm awake enough to notice you leaving the guest room and going downstairs.

Oh, I wouldn't necessarily be as cool about doing it in a strange house. But in mine, where I know where all the steps are and where the handrail is and where the turn is, know it in my body's memory, I can do it in the dark without fear. (In your house, I'd probably switch the light on...)

I thought it was only me who managed to pour coffee places instead of the grounds...good to know I'm not alone:)

And as someone who has irregular sleeping hours and difficulty sleeping, I can totally relate to your bad night.
