dvds to sleep to
This week has been a rough week to fall asleep without Timmy. So, I have reverted to my single days method of sleeping - I've been falling asleep to a movie. I take the laptop to bed with me, place it on Timmy's side, fall asleep, wake up around 2 or so, turn off the laptop, and go back to sleep. Before Timmy, I would just put a movie on the computer and let it run all night, but that was a desktop. This is a laptop and I fear kicking it off the bed in the middle of the night. Already this week I have exhausted Little Women and Notting Hill. They are my sleepy movies. I know them well enough and watch them often enough that I don't feel bad falling asleep to them. Little Women in particular - that's my happy movie. That's why I put it on last week when I was sick and wanting my mami. I know Little Women so well that I can close my eyes and see the movie. Depending on how tired I am, I can be out cold before Marmie even gets home. Tonight, however, I have decided to fall asleep to Angela and her high school friends of My So-Called Life. My sister bought be the complete series (0ne season) a few years ago for Christmas. It was a good gift. Self-Esteem and Peer Pressure from Disk 4 are the best episodes (when Angela and Jordan finally get together and then when Angela and Jordan break up - the best). I would fall asleep to that DVD all the time. Unfortunately, I have beat up that disk; I fear using it much more since it seems to have a scratch already. So, tonight I will watch "Life of Brian" from Disk 3. Another good episode. It's the one told from Brian's perspective - he lies to Deliah about being sick so he can "go to the dance" with Angela. Jerk. Anyway, time for the show and hopefully I will fall asleep, but since I haven't seen this episode in a while, it may be harder to fall asleep.

i feel your pain - when steve was working at the theatre, he wouldn't come home till the middle of the night - and by the time he'd get home, i'd have just fallen asleep after hours of tossing and turning.
My sleepy time movie is Empire Records. I think I went for almost 6 or 7 months falling asleep to that movie every night.
