Insomnia

Why can some people fall asleep just by deciding to?
How can people slaeep during travel? Be it plane or train. How?
I am so envious. I've had difficulties sleeping since childhood.
It's 04.54, and Ive tried to fall asleep since 23.00
However frustrating it is, -there is something magical about night.
These hours when it feels like you and the cat are the only awake beings.
Besides the poor bastards still in a bar somewhere in partyville.
Strange thoughts, creative whims, ingenious work-related ideas and
just general nonsense often appear as I battle for some sleep.
Why is it I always fall asleep just within the frikin hour the alarm is set to?

False nail virgin

So, I have 10 brand new (well, one week old) false nails.
I never thought I would have them, and now I do. Pretty much every woman I know have them, so why shouldn't I? They look great, but they come with all sorts of obstacles. I feel totally handicapped. I can't button my blouse, can't open my dogs tin of dogfood. I can't scratch my ear or pick my nose. I struggle to type, I can't deal with the locks on my necklaces and bracelets.
They need as much, if not more care than the original ones.
And, christ, it hurts when you break one! Yes, off-course I have broken nails already, what did you think? Not just one, but two snapped right off. It looks bizarre. My friend said matter -of-factly " you would break your nails even it they were made of diamonds and drilled into your fingers with oil platform technology"
Off to mend the two broken ones tonight. I have to! The bastards cost me a fortune.
One + of the whole thing, which again proves that men are gullable fools, - men think they are real! I mean, .. honestly. But hey, thanks boys, and bless your smelly socks!
