Can’t Sleep

When I have a nap on a Sunday afternoon, I find it hard to sleep at Sunday night. I heard somewhere that we should try to sleep and wake up at about the same time each day even on weekends.

I have a tendency to stay up late on Friday and Saturday nights. Perhaps it is a psychological feeling of control or freedom that I do not have to wake up early the next day. On a Saturday night I am free to do whatever I want. I can watch TV until 1am. I can read a nice book until 1am or 2am. I can play a computer game up to 3am.

Time flies when you are having fun. I can be reading a nice novel and notice that it is 3am already. I will then realize to force myself to sleep or will feel sleepy by that time and concerned that I have to wake up in a few hours for work.

Such is life. I am lucky to have a job and I am happy to have a job that I enjoy. Life can be short and fast. I might as well live doing something I love.
