Cat vid of the day: Why do cats have vertical pupils? - Emma Bryce



I snagged somewhere probably around 3 hours of sleep between falling asleep in front of YouTube and a couple other moments of nodding off.

.I did not go to bed. 

Instead, when I looked at the hour and the sky was starting to get lighter, i...drum roll please...made white bean and kale soup with the pot of beans I had been hot soaking for a few days and a big bunch of kale that was on the verge of not holding up in the refrigerator.

And then after awhile I ate breakfast, took a shower, and Went to Folklife, for the first time in awhile with a friend who also had not been for awhile for a different reason. It was SO nice to share the experience and not just fog around solo.

Weather was perfect: cloudy enough to deter some of the hordes and sunny by afternoon. I did not know about a Monday afternoon tradition of Seattle Peace Chorus doing a Mozart requiem sing-along. I had not planned to stay but I am glad I did.

Now exhausted and hopefully time to plug away at more chores.

Sleep the final frontier. In bed about 1.   Sudoku anyone?   I am a grownup. I did not HAVE to start the second puzzle.   Up before 6.   5 ish hours and I cannot go back to bed both because of the impending floor stripping and waxing in my hall and because I have a meeting at 10 and have to allow travel time.   Also headache. Partly tension but breakfast and fluids helped a lot.   Surprisingly lethargic after getting used to more sleep.   Email from Whole Life Challenge. Suggesting an hour a day screen free. OK. So now I get to feel burdened because I did not get more audiobooks downloaded yesterdayand I really really do not want audiobooks on my screen devices. But at least I am journaling.   And by the way, RantWoman really should read the upgrade notes for Zoomtext. Really. RantWoman HATES the current version of Twitter. RantWoman HATES that Twitter no longer remembers hashtags one has searched on. R...

Sleep the blog

There is a Chekhov short story called Sleepy, Спать хочется where the main character spends most of the story fighting sleep and the things that keep her from sleeping. In the novel "Oblomov" by Nikolai Goncharov, it takes the main character 50 pages to decide to get out of bed. RantWoman falls somewhere between these two poles. This blog is dedicated to sleep, particularly RantWoman and sleep. RantWoman needs to sleep more than she does. RantWoman does not always manage to do things that probably would help her sleep more. This blog is partly intended to collect data in hopes that RantWoman can settle on some steady practices to help her get more sleep. What time does RantWoman fall asleep? Is this before or after RantWoman goes to bed? What time does RantWoman go to bed? What time does RantWoman get up? Does RantWoman go back to bed? If so, how long does she sleep the second round? Adventures with CPAP The Queen of Spades and behavior issues. What ti...
