Secret 3 - I Am Good In Bed

And on the couch, in the car, on the floor, and at work. Pretty much I can sleep anywhere you decide to put me. It really drives my husband nuts because whenever we get in the car to go somewhere I promptly fall asleep. And in airplanes, forget it. I'm asleep right after take-off...well let me amend that and say I fall asleep after we get to cruising altitude, because then an accident is less likely to happen (or so I like to believe so don't try to change my mind).

Also, as I've mentioned before, one of my favorite things to to do is nap during thunderstorms. We have woods in the back of our house (something that you'll hear me bitch talk about more in the fall when all the leaves are cluttering up the pool) and I love the way the wind whooshes through the trees. In the mid-west we can get some really wicked thunderstorms, and I love being all snug and cozy while the storm is raging outside. I might change my mind if one falls on the house during one of those storms.


At night it really drives my husband crazy because, even with an Ambien, he tosses and turns for a couple hours before drifitng off to sleep. I can usually be asleep in a half hour or less. Occassionally I might have a somewhat difficult time sleeping, but that usually only happens on vacation (or if I've hit one too many Starbucks during the day). And if I take an Ambien I'm ususally out in about 10 minutes, sleep-talking not-with-standing.

One of the hardest places to sleep is at work. I've found that if I try to rest my weary head on the counter someone always comes along and tries to make me be productive. I hate that.
