Sleep

This is the motherlode for me, and if I don’t get it it hurts, really hurts.

The pills which were working so well are starting to slip… I’m bolting awake at 3.30 or 4am, and while I seem not to have much trouble drifting off again it seems suspiciously like the thin end of the wedge to me.

I had thought this was because I hadn’t been having my customary 2 or even 3 glasses of vino in an evening, but it appears this is not the case - I had’em last night, and the sameold happened as normal.

Perhaps I shouldn’t complain. My average sleep achieved per night has gone up from 5 hours to 7.5 and this has got to be a good thing, but any sleep deprivation at all sends me loopy.  I begin forgetting things and reeling about in a somnambulist trance during the day. Anyway, it pisses me off.
