Too Late to Sleep

It is odd how some days I am tired as hell and have no problems falling asleep even after waking up 2-3 times during the night to urinate and other days, once I wake up the first time I cannot fall back asleep no matter what I do and I feel kind of stupid just laying there.

So...  here I am...  been up since 1:30 am or so and it is now almost 3:30 and I am on my second cup of coffee as I sit here in my recliner typing my thoughts instead of writing them down on paper and I don't really understand why I want to do this since hardly anyone reads these blogs of mine...  but, since I am retired with no hobbies and no travel plans due to COVID there is little else for someone like me to do.

• I do not like playing golf
• I do not like watching sports although I used to
• I do not want a part-time job although I do a little teaching
• I am not good with my hands
• I have no interest in oil painting
• I never have bowled so why start now
• I am not into having fun losing money at poker
• I am not into other forms of gambling
• I don't like watching TV or movies

To say that I am peculiar is an understatement, but this is who I am or who I have turned out to be for one reason or another and it is not practical to change nor is it easy.  My cat begs me not to change because he enjoys my lap whenever he gets a notion to and wants me simply to be available.

Too much coffee makes my stomach feel weird so I must lay back for a while...   later...
