Under the Covers meme

I stole this meme from The Queen's Meme...

1. Name 2 things you have done under the covers in the last week.
Sleep and roll my eyes that I have to get out of bed

2. Do you know what a woobie is? Do you have a special one?
Some kid named Kevin in the movie Mr. Mom had one, right? Like a blankie? And no, I don't have one. At my age, that might seem a bit strange.

3. What prompts you to pull the covers over your head and hide from the world?
knowing I have to go to school, but there are only 9 more days (not counting today) of that nonsense left

4. Firm or soft?
ummmm, what are we talking about here?

5. Silk or flannel?
Silk jammies

6. Lights on or off?
well, I sleep much better when the lights are off

7. Fan or no air?
oh, fan and air are great

8. Completely dark or nite light?
completely dark for sleeping, please!

9. Windows open or shut
open windows are fine with me

10. Sweet dreams or nightmares?
I suffer from both-- sometimes at the same time

11. PJ's or……
or what?

12. Set bedtime?
on a school night I'm usually more pleasant with my students if I have a good night's sleep so I try to be in the rack by 10:30pm

13. What do sheep count when they can't sleep?
they count people, of course

14. What does your alarm clock sound like?
right now it's Jason Mraz singing "I'm Yours"

15. White noise or music
neither; silence is golden

16. TV or IPod?
I used to be a firm believer that TV's should not be in bedrooms because beds were for sleeping or screwing, not watching TV. Though I do have an iPod...

17. Can you recall a pleasant dream you'd like to share?
not that I can share. It's naughty...

both, depending on the temperature of the room

19. Insomniac or sleep angel?
I'm well known for my insomnia

20. What is your favorite sleep aid for those tossin' and turnin' nights?
vodka. Valium. Equate sleep aid: 2 pills. Um, and before ya'll go planning an intervention, I don't usually take these three in combination.

21. Morning person or night person
Night owl

22. Bedtime snack?
okay. What are we having?

have a queen, would love a King

26. Socks or naked feet

it involved rings of fire, fast moving cars, the jungle, a bottomlessly deep lake and huge man-eating alligators

32. Please share any ideas on how to stop a person from snoring.
have enough sex with the snorer that you exhaust yourself and you fall asleep before they do so you don't hear 'em

33. If one purely pleasant thought could ensure fast and sound deep sleep for you every night, what would your one thought be?
I have no idea. I'm open to suggestions. It would be nice to just turn off my mind for a little bit. My brain is really full right now.

not enough lately
