Here’s an anomaly. It’s shortly before 11:30p on a weeknight. I’m showered, face off, eyeballs out. I’m actually ready for bed, watching “Friends,” lying on my stomach over my bed w/my laptop.

This is because I was told earlier to get in the shower and do my bedtime routine so that I could actually sleep thru the nite instead of falling asleep in front of the TV from exhaustion, then waking up at 2:30a to clean up, shower, and then being unable to fall back asleep until 4 or 5a. I followed the instruction, tho I wasn’t even threatened. I mean, I even said, “…or…?” He said, “There’s no ‘or.’ You’re getting into a bad habit and I worry about you.” That’s all it took. Weird, huh? I actually found it endearing.

Will & Grace is now on. I’m not sure if I’m gonna be able to fall asleep at a decent hour, but I must say, I like this. I feel less guilty. Now the only thing I’m feeling angry and guilty about is the state of my house and laundry.
