My Mom and my 4 year old nephew are just across the hall. So I have to be super quiet. I slept about the same time as you and now have a full weekend to conquer. Balls!

3:20am and the minutes are ticking by. And no, I haven’t been online all this time. I’ve been reading for a couple of hours, then got online to check my email.  
Le sigh.

I’ve been in and out of bed four times in the past 2 hours.

My bed doesn’t like me.

There’s an insomnia thread started and for the first time in a couple weeks, I actually slept all night. Maybe it was a session of rousing love-making with Mr. Serenata that just wore me out. But I don’t think my hips could do that every night before bed. 😃

That’s what we’re here for! Non-judgmental conversations about chat-sex. I’ve been there, I’ve done that… LDRs will lead to that. As will boredom. And I’ve been on both sides of that.

(sorry for the double post… missed the edit window)

So I finally managed to fall asleep around 2pm, and woke up about 3:15. That’s all I got. I’m hoping as a result that tonight will be better.
