The Inability To Sleep

It is nearly 3:00am right now, and I'm positively incapable of going to sleep.

There's a very good, frustrating reason for this: I took a nap.

Sleep beguiled me with its charms and I fell victim to the age-old trick known as a 'nap'. As I imagined, the nap felt spectacular, as giving in normally does.

Sleep tempted me with promises of eradicating my boredom, relieving a bit of sleepiness, and leaving me perfectly dehydrated. In other words, it was a mighty temptation.

And, as Oscar Wilde remarked in Lady Windermere's Fan, 'I can resist everything except temptation'.

I wholeheartedly concur, Mr Wilde.

  18. Naps are evil like that, they seem so good at the time- but when you're staring into space at 3am, you majorly start to regret it. I know I do! Hope you sleep better tonight :-)

  23. mmm just a little tip, take a hot shower (it will relax your muscles) masturbate (it will relax your body even more) watch a nice and quiet movie (nothing with explotions or noise, just something romantic) and don't think about sleeping...you'll do it like a baby!
