Sleep is a good thing

[hummingwolf]

Spent yesterday wandering around, eventually managing to do something useful. Finally got one big problem out of the way, which is a major relief and will remain a major relief for at least the next, oh, three or four days. Anyway, wore myself out with much walking, so I ended up taking a nap soon after supper, then decided to extend the nap till morning. The alarm annoyed me by waking me up as someone in a dream was in the middle of explaining some arcane medical thing or other, but I was happy that I got more than nine hours of sleep in there.

Still had a headache when I woke up, a combination of migraine & muscle tension. Really feeling out of it. But I choose to insist that I am not hallucinating--I did not imagine the fish swimming in the tree outside, but merely misinterpreted the shape of a strangely silhouetted bird. Also, anyone would have thought those leaves were a man's trousered legs swinging back and forth. Really.

Maybe I do need some caffeine this morning.

What a wonderful image, fish swimming in the tree! I'm almost inspired to try to paint such a vision, aren't you?

It does sound like the start of a good surrealist painting, doesn't it? And maybe when I wasn't looking, the fish tried to swim through the legs of the man's pants.

I love those naps that extent right on until morning.
Natascha decided to take a little nap last night on the couch. She asked me to wake her in an hour. After using me as her personal 'snooze button' for two hours, I finally told her it was time to wake up from her nap to go to bed. She woke up quite refreshed this morning.

I hope you get to feeling better, and your headache disappears.
We've got lovely sunshine today, so I think I'll finish mowing my lawn.

Sounds like last night was a good night for napping. :-)

I'm feeling a bit better now, mostly just watching birds & butterflies flying around outside. It looks like a beautiful day outside, though it's brighter than I'm comfortable with right now. Well, as long as I stay indoors, it's easy enough to close the blinds when necessary!
