I don't know if that was the reaction you were going for, but the irony is so profound :) Also maybe because that happened to me a few days ago, except it was a colleague texting me to see if I was safe, thereby informing me that there was reason to be concerned - happily all is well now but that feeling of 'finally, I'm resting. Oh maybe not' - yup, very familiar.<br /><br />by the way, thank you so much for all your kind words and your faithfulness. It really means the world to me and I really wish I could return the favour. Maybe when I leave Egypt and settle down a bit I will be better about commenting. I hope. But I do keep up with your writings even if you don't hear from me, and I love your tales.katinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4865699211711235354.post-66384115293412860462011-06-30T13:35:23.779-04:002011-06-30T13:35:23.779-04:00Such a fun read!

I giggled at the punchline though. :)<br /><br />Sometimes when I can't sleep, I mentally empty someone's house (any house - it doesn't matter) and decorate / furnish it the way I would do it. Somehow that puts me to sleep ever time - probably because it takes my mind off of whatever it was that was keeping me awake. Lynnnoreply@blogger.com
