Late Night TV

I think I slept all of two minutes last night in spite of going to bed early.  I woke up sweating like I had run two marathons and a decathlon. So, after my usual couple of trips to the kitchen in search of something cold to drink I was thinking I needed a fridge in my room to save me time. So, after drinking my unusually tall glass or ice water, usually a short mug does the trick, I sank back into my bed, fluffed the pillows and turning them over to the cool side I turned on the TV. I was glad that my son decided to put it there a couple weeks ago in spite of my objections that it would just take up more of what little space I had in the bedroom. Last night I was glaf for this one time he didn't listen.

So, since I don't have cable in there just an antenna I only got 60 channels which sounds like a lot until you realize about half are in languages I don't understand. But, I managed to find 3 late night westerns, 4 movies I had seen before and didn't care to watch again, a million info commercials and several old shows I threw up watching. I stayed on that channel. I watched the Alfred Hitchcock's mystery shows, or whatever they were called, and a actually enjoyed them more this time around.  So, a couple hours later and another half glass of water and a couple trips to the bathroom I was ready to turn off the TV and try again for the sandman to revisit me but this time keep the hot flashes to himself. 

I slept in a cool slumber for the next 6 hours. Until I started my day with a cold glass of water and an omlet.
