110823



Sometimes I wake up in the wee hours of the morning, worrying about things I've done or not done, things I have to do or have to not do, where the money's coming from, and so on. Apparently this is a thing that many people do. There is a name for it, which I ran across in a word of the day list, but I don't remember it now. I mentioned it to my wife this morning and discovered that she never does this. She wakes up thinking about whatever her dreams were about and doesn't worry about a thing. At least not at that time of the morning. So now I've gone from assuming that I was singularly neurotic, to thinking I was just like everybody else, to realizing that we are not all the same in this 3:00 in the morning game. I guess I should have figured that from the beginning.
