Sold my red horse for a venture home.

Can’t sleep. Can’t sleep. Can’t sleep.

For some reason that comes in triplicates. I’m hoping I can reboot my brain with a nice refreshing post.

So it’s been over a year and I’ve finally broken through the invisible wall that runs down the center of my bed. It used to be that straying a leg was a small rebellion. Just recently, I’ve been able to experience the sweet victory of embracing an entire Queen sized bed all to myself. I feel triumphant.

In the past, I’ve restrained from posting on challenges and struggles I’ve been facing because of the risk of making those on or associated with this board uncomfortable. I end up just spouting off everyday shallow crap about living in a new city. I’m trying to get over that. I’m realizing how lonely I am, how much I desire to be part of a community, and what a what wonderful one has formed here that I procrastinate truly joining or I allow my neurotic instincts to to prevent me from opening up to. Again, trying to get over myself.

Jane and I were once given a lesson on tapering our applause rather than abruptly ending it. I feel like I’m abruptly ending my clapping here by not saying anything else, but oh well. Hoping it was enough that sleep will come now.

    The Secret made me think I had to stay on only half the bed. Really, it’s an easy habit to pick up, though. With guys I dated in the past, they had specific sides of the bed they preferred, so I stuck with the other side. For months after not being with them, I still found myself staying on the other side of the bed. More recently, I think that’s all crap and I’ll sleep wherever the mattress is less lumpy.
    And yes, let’s build up the TD community. And plurk more. You should add some of our TD&Co.-ers who also plurk. They’re fantastic.
