I will sell my soul for a night's sleep
That's all I want. One night of uninterrupted sleep.
Three nights ago it was the dogs.
Two nights ago it was sis and the boyfriend having a blazing row in the middle of the night.
Last night it was sis pounding on the sodding walls because she was sick and wanted Mum. Who, naturally, slept through it until sis forced me to wake her up.
Now...I get it. If you're in pain, it's natural that you're not thinking quite rationally. And without sleep, I'm probably not thinking entirely rationally. But goddamn it, if you're that sick you call 999. You don't drag a 70 year old woman out of bed just because you want a hug. And she couldn't have been that sick because Mum didn't call 999.
One more night without sleep and I swear I'm gonna kill someone. I'll be able to plead temporary insanity.
One night. Is that so much to ask?

Grrrr! I think that calls for a sneaky and vengeful counter-attack in the middle of the next night that your sister is blissfully asleep. But then, I'm nasty like that. *g*
::sympathetic hugs::
Better luck tonight babe.

If it wouldn't wake Mum up, too, believe me I'd be getting out the Metal Box. It's the world's best revenge music: I can barely listen to it for one track.
Thanks for the hugs :-)

Maybe investing in earplugs might work?

Sis actually apologised to me for last night...but not for the night before. God, I hope I can sleep tonight. I can live with my family being pissed at my bad mood, but it would be uncool to be at work like this.
