Things in life that take the exact period of "one sleep" to complete

  1. The amount of time it takes a trimmed fingernail to stop feeling just a little bit weird
  2. The amount of time it takes the old sandals/slippers, that you had to switch back to when when the new set was pissed on by a cat/dog, to feel the exact way that sandals/slippers are supposed to feel.

How long it took me to get used to my slightly larger monitor and then my slightly larger phone.

How long it takes for a migraine to stop, usually.

The amount of time it takes your tongue to shake off that “I have a hair stuck in my mouth” feeling even after you’ve removed said filament.

The amount of time it takes for your tongue to feel normal after burning it.

The amount of time it takes for the roof of your mouth to feel normal after eating rough cereal.

The amount of time for my freshly vacuumed floors to be covered in dog hair again.

The amount of time to get used to how the bare skin feels after shaving off a beard or other facial hair you’ve had for awhile.

The amount of time to sober up after a party or a night at the pub, d’oh.

(Disclaimer: that doesn’t mean you’re good to drive a car first thing in the morning. Don’t do that, I’ve learned that the hard way some twenty years ago)

The amount of time until you’re ready for more sex.
