Still, there’s a bit of drama in having a list of perfectly ordinary things that you could easily do, if only you would do them. At the very least, my Boring Bucket List gives me something to look forward to...one of these days.

Sleep and I have a rocky relationship. I don’t mean getting to sleep, or even waking up. Melatonin, and not drinking coffee past noon have solved the first problem, and I’ve been waking up early, on and off, since I was eleven. It’s the need to go to sleep that gives me such trouble.
