Today I would like to write about something I miss. Good sleep. I seldom get any these days with work and all. Even when I have the time, something comes up and interrupts my slumber. I used to managed to get a full recharge at least once a week. Now I am lucky to feel that way once every two months. My body is so accustomed to waking up early that sleeping in is a challenge. Waking up several times in the morning and fighting consciousness so I return to resting is surprisingly exhausting.
Come to think of it, even when I had someone next to me when I slept I felt restored when I got up. Hell, I think I miss that more than sleeping. Something about waking up to a person you care for makes laying there an experience in its own. Sure it comes with being close and quite intimate with a woman, but in general its quite nice. I had that long ago it seems, don't know where that went. Being single in the military does a number on having a personal life.
I like my space and my sleep, but I could and would definitely forgo it for a warm companion. As comfy as my bed can be with its bright white down comforter and welcoming pillows, it is as though I slept in the snow when compared to sharing my bed with my companion.
It is a good thing I am fairly resilient to that barren feeling. Goodnight.
