And the new couch proves comfy.

I woke up at 4 am and I struggled to get back to sleep.

I tried my usual trick…. put an episode of Futurama on my phone, turn it over, and fall asleep listening to it.  Futurama has been my go to sleeping method for years.  Almost never fails me.  I’ve gone from falling asleep watching an episode, turn just hearing an episode and falling asleep.  Sam struggles to fall asleep to noise or people talking…. I kind of need it.  Sam needs dark, I can fall asleep with whatever.  So our compromise is that I put Futurama on my my phone, flip the phone over so its dark still, and wear headphone while falling asleep.  It’s sounds elaborate typed out, but its not.  Sam never really complained about the light or noise, I just know she gets to sleep faster without it.

But while I fell alseep great last night.  I woke up at 4 am and couldn’t get back to work with Futurama on my phone.  So I tried sleeping trick number two: move locations.  I went out to the living room to lay back down and try to fall asleep.  It worked.  It worked perfectly.  Within minutes of laying down I got back to sleep.

I put that on new couch and his amazingness.

Of course I had a weird dream that I woke up at 7:59 and it was still dark outside.  It was really vivid too.  In my dream my alarms didn’t go off, and I kept checking my phone and it kept saying 7:59.  It was dark outside and my alarms had never gone off.  In my dream I grabbed Sam’s computer off the coffee table and it too said 7:59 (strange because Sam’s computer is on the coffee table this morning).

I blame that dream on the Scotchy Scotch Scotch I ate last night.

Sam bought me a pint of it and I may have eaten the whole pint in one sitting. It was fantastic and I couldn’t resist.

When I actually did wake up it was 5:36 am, 4 minutes before my alarm. Which still sucks, but at least I won’t be late for work.
