One of those nights!

Here I am again, the dead of night when all normal people are fast asleep and cosy and I'm not, instead I am here, this is becoming way too much of a habit!

What's that all about then, for the last three weeks, off I go to bed, bleary eyed and feeling nicely tired but to no appropriate avail....the moment my head hits the pillow my eyes spring open and my mind turns back onto wide awake mode. No amount of lying there counting sheep or whatever makes even the slightest difference, the eyes stay firmly in the open position! Gah!

Add to that I seem to be having a 'spell' of that damnable fiddly legs malarkey, ok,so that's not a technical term, it's called Restless legs syndrome, but that barely sounds any more technical does it?, which in turn doesn't help any attempts at restful sleep, to put it mildly.

I know, I'm not exactly overworked right now, I'm probably not really very tired in comparison to usual but please, if I'm not to be allowed to sleep the least the technical gods could do at this late hour is allow me a wireless connection without an hours lost fight, resulting in the bloody wire having to be heaved from it's hiding place and poked into the back of the machine!

This all of course has to be undertaken in super quiet style so as not to wake himself who, just to rub salt in the wound, is happily sleeping like a baby!

Grumpy? Who me? Did I mention the PMT already?
