i wish i could sleep

I've been having trouble sleeping for the past two months . I don't know exactly what it is, but insomnia is definitely back in my life. It’s 4:21 a.m. and after laying in bed listlessly for 2hrs, after trying to listen to music and the deep breathing, I finally gave in, got my ass out of bed and sat it down in front of the computer, to do some “work.” The nature of the work is yet to be determined.

about 2 hours later...

I lived in the relative “country” outside of Portland for about a year. The dang rooster on the property never, ever, crowed at the right time. It was cockadoodle-doo in the middle of meditation, all thru breakfast, and especially around 2am. What the fuck was wrong with that rooster? I spent 5 weeks in Tijuana and the roosters were about the same there, too. It is now 6 a.m and I still haven’t slept. I hear a rooster crowing now, and I just have to smile because it’s another thing I like about Quito, roosters actually crow at the right time here. I think I'm about ready to go to bed.
