Howling at the moon: The upside of insomia

'twas the night before tuesday and all thru house not creature was stirring..not even a mouse.

It was a well-known fact among most people who know me that I despite of my very stubborn insomnia, am not a user of any kind of sleeping pills.

Here's why:
My latest thing that I discovered about three weeks ago is, around 2 am (ish) make myself a cup of tea, put on my jacket head downstairs out to the backyard kind of thing we got going on here, put my headphones on and just enjoy the moon for about 30-40 minutes. It's very very relaxing and even though when I come inside again I more often than not still can't sleep,I feel less stressed and over all quite happy.

Had I been a popper of sleeping pills and passed out by midnight this wouldn't be possible.


So even though insomnia is a often a royal pain in the ass and really makes daytime activity hard like all annoyances it has it's upsides.

So if you haven't tried I strongly recommend you do...the moon thing I mean. Not the insomnia.


If you have a big wolf like dog to keep you company it makes it even better.
