Okay, I'm quite sure I didn't go to bed any later than 2 a.m., and I think it was earlier. I slept a little restlessly (as I often do when I go to bed before 4) but always went right back to sleep. My...probably smart, on the whole. I definitely need to get up and get going now, though! You can leave a comment on the Dreamwidth version of this entry if you like. The current comment count is .

I must have slept really deeply last night, because I had the most fucked-up Freudian dream about my mother getting married and me being upset because she wasn't marrying me, even though I had jilted her...of the subconscious. I slept most of nine hours. Wow. I feel a lot better now. You can leave a comment on the Dreamwidth version of this entry if you like. The current comment count is .

Oh, and before I forget, my bizarre (possibly fever-induced) dream of last night/this morning: I went out to buy a face mask [this stemming from thoughts as I was falling asleep about whether I'd be sniffly...was just an endless dreary slog. Everyone else went off to their own trains and I ended up all alone and lost and frustrated. And after all of that, I don't think I even put on the stupid face mask

Over the past few months, I've taken to sleeping without underwear on, as a way to combat yeast infections. The yeasty beasties have indeed stayed away (hooray!) but instead I get wacky sex-related dreams... and soon I was too. And that's just the past three nights. It's been like this nearly every night, for weeks. So bizarre! I'd rather have sex dreams than yeast infections, though. Even weird sex dreams
