nottambulo

Confession: I am a nottuambulo (Italian).  I am a night owl.

What would you do IF you couldn't sleep?

Because I am able to read, write, and ponder late into the morning hours, I have learned to appreciate this precious quiet time.  For a long time, I tried to lie in bed and count sheep, but that proved impossible for me.  Usually it is all I can do to just get dressed for bed at ten o'clock, let alone think about retiring for the night and sleeping at midnight.

So I have come to accept that I am an active person...at night.  I like to be somewhat domestic during this time (folding laundry and unloading the dishwasher are common tasks I like to accomplish), but most of the time,

I'm simply reading, writing, and pondering ...life.
