What is it about the weekends?
During the week my nightly routine is fairly consistent: Bed at about 10, read for about an hour, sleep like a log till 6.27 when woken by Chris Moyles on the clock radio. Then the struggle to get out of my pit to embrace a new day.
Seven and half blissful hours, uninterrupted, but the need for more sleep not far from my thoughts.
Come the weekend a totally different matter! OK I don't go to bed too late, maybe skip the reading, but generally asleep before midnight, with the prospect of a nice lazy lie-in the following morning.
Guess what? 4.25am wide awake! What starts off as little trip to relieve a beer filled bladder, ends up with a brain in overdrive trying to sort out the meaning of the universe.
Why can't we have a switch that allows us to turn off all thoughts for the duration of sleep? Oh , forgot, we do. Those few beers to relax at the end of a hard week help us fall into an alcohol induced slumber, but are at the route of the 4.25am awakening!
Better stick with cocoa in future - and make sure it's taken at about 7pm make sure no early mental philosophical debates.
