Insomina at 3 a.m.
Take this morning. As much as I enjoy cuddling, if I'm awake and my companion is not, it gets boring after a while. Just breathing her scent and feeling her warm flesh pressed up against me isn't enough. Sometimes I want to talk and sometimes I want to fuck. Both require her to be awake.
Ah well.
That's when I squirm out of bed and go find a place to read or skim the internet. At least one of us should sleep.
There are other drawbacks to insomnia. Go two or three days with only a little sleep and it gets harder to think. It also means that every few days you end up crashing for a few extra blessed hours of sleep.
And it means that it's harder to put myself out there and write.
I've an idea or two for Tuesday. But right now I think I will change my laundry and see if my beard on her thighs will wake her. It's almost six now.
