I seem to have rediscovered the art of sleep!
I always used to think that the reason for me not sleeping well was me...like I was some sort of beginner insomniac or something.
Nope! It seems as though I was merely well trained by my cat. I kept the blinds closed when I went to sleep, but he found this to be decidedly inconvenient, as looking through the window provided the best entertainment. So, he would beat his paw incessantly against the window blinds while I was sleeping. Naturally, I caved and opened them, as my cat had much more patience than me.
Doing this obviously brought in quite a bit of light, so for the last few years, I have rarely been able to sleep past the sun rise.
The cat I adopted from my parents has a different set of quirks and not nearly the same sticktoittiveness that Galileo had-he was nothing if not persistent. So, I've been able to sleep in a dark room, and I actually find myself oversleeping. Not that I'm complaining...
I thought this was clever (and oh so very true):
