Where do I begin.

I've been feeling really tired these days, and all I ever want to do is have a day dedicated just for sleeping. In fact, I want to spend one weekend doing nothing but sleep, only to wake up for lunch, dinner and hydration. I'd switch off my phone, cut off my internet connection, ban television and have my room scented in lavender and vanilla, the lights lay low and the only sound around is the humming of the air-con.

I'm so sleepy constantly that I think it's an illness. I sleep on the train, the bus, after lunch, after dinner, at any given opportunity. But at night I'd be wide awake. I'm weirdly nocturnal. The first thing I think of when I wake up everyday is when I can sleep again. On the bus? The train? After lunch? Tonight? I try to stay awake but once my mind wanders off into the Realms of Nothingness, my eyes start to close. Coffee seems to have little or no effect on me. I can have a double shot expresso and still fall into slumber after forty winks. And weirdly enough, alcohol makes me sleepy (and itchy), instead of making me high. (I'm quite allergic to alcohol, unfortunately, which is why I order warm milk at the bar.)

This talk about sleeping is making me very sleepy. Maybe I shall make myself a glass of warm milk and go to sleep. And it's a Saturday night. I am such a senior citizen.
