Sleep is most delicious when it is forbidden. Like this morning: The last couple days I have somehow gotten ready faster than usual and have this extra time staring at me. Why go to work early if my boss isn't worried about it and I'd rather cut my lunch short anyway since I just eat alone when I could steal a few more minutes lying back down on my bed? It's only about 10 exra minutes, but it feels so nice. This morning I drifted off and woke with a start when I realized I didn't know if I had just slept 10 minutes or half and hour. I only slept about 8 minutes longer than I planned, so it was fine, but it was a sad moment to leave my bed like that. Other delicious sleep moments are when I am reading and my eyes and brain get so heavy that they just come to a peaceful rest as I doze off. My bed always feels the most inviting when my alarm goes off in the morning- that's always just when I've found the most comfortable position that I've experienced in my entire life or when the summer sunshine is giving the room a warm glow that is comforting like an old blanket or right when the dream was getting interesting... Sleep never felt so good as when you can't have it.
