Just eating my bed-time lettuce, so i thought i should post an up-date. Hmm, maybe this could be a sleep diary?
Slept well last night - i took a pill because i had to work today. No question, pills work much better than lettuce. Though after a reasonable amount of sleep of course i felt more tired than usual today (as you do...). Fortunately i was only showing a film in my 9.00 class - came close to dozing off at one point though. zzzzzzzzzzz
So, can i do without a pill tonight? I think I'm going to try.
Apparently bananas have the same thing in them which causes sleepiness - funny, i always thought of bananas as giving energy. Still, i'll try anything, though its a very strange thing to be doing, eating Little Gem and banana at 11.30.
Watched Life on Mars tonight, i know Luce loves it. Pretty good - and Blakeys!!! i'd forgotten about Blakeys, i used to have them on my shoes. Can't you buy them any more? Chicken in the basket!! In Manchester - the dirty bastards.
One little gem down, one banana to go.
Feel free to leave any tips for a good nights sleep!

Ummmm, don't know about sleep cures, try hot chocolate warm bath etc... Do you wake up Lettuce or just have difficulty getting off to sleep? Poor you.... fancy having to eat little gems and bananas late at night...Nice to read you on blog land, been thinking of you lot's :-)
Ha Ha, lol, lmfao.... you're a born comedian.
Life on Mars, blakeys...I know! I'd forgotton about them. That used to be the first thing we'd have put on our new shoes! Lots of other little things in the show but did you notice the UVPC windows and air conditioning units on the building? Anachronistic non?
Blakeys: I still put them on all my shoes and boots, but in the states we call them Taps. Half-moon shaped and horseshoes for really noisy tough boots.
Tapgrrl
Tapgrrl - In the midwest states they are called "cleats" - taps were for sissy dancers back then. In the 60s many many girls wore cleats and I loved those clicking days. Back then a girl had three pairs of shoes and one pair of boots so her heels needed to last. I even dated two girls because they had metal cleats on their gogo boots. The clicking and their miniskirts were heart-throbbing. Interesting, the last couple years to save shoe repair costs and inconvience my frugal wife put the small metal ones on her smaller heels. She grew up in the70 & 80s when plastic cleats were all she had, but they don't last on small heels so she tried metal and found she actually likes the sound when she walks and isn't embarrised. She at 49 and me at 60hearing her click is still exciting. The only problem she has is metal cleats and winter ice don't go together in Minneapolis.
Will they ever come back? I doubt it because we have become a throw away society and their popularity came from the ecomonics of making shoes and boots last. Besides shoe repair shops are dying and those left around don't even carry cleats anymore. Linda tried 6 shops before finding one that could help her with cleats and he retired last fall.
I will always love the sounds of a womens heels
