Insomnia again....

And I've finished my book, and there's nothing good on TV.....

WHat book did you just finish reading?

droolymutt · Posted: Tue Dec 09, 2003 8:29 am Post subject: Re: uh-oh......

Siddhartha.... (Hermann Hesse)

Ever read any Hermann Hesse?

Don't.

It will give you insomnia.

I've heard of the book. It's a daytime reading book, is it? hahahaha

Well how about I set you some really boring things to do?

How about counting the hairs on your big toe? The left one first.

Then if you get past that, lie flat on your back (on your bed is preferable) arms straight down by your side. Imagine you are being spiritually massaged first from the top of your head, then your forehead, then your eyebrows, then your eyes, then your nose, then your cheeks, then your lips, then your jaw, then your neck, then your shoulders etc. and work your way down your body. Empty your mind of thoughts. THis is a mental and spiritual massage. You'll love it.

Although... - you might enjoy "Gertrude" by Hesse....

It's about musicians, people, Women, Men, passion, love, insanity and sanity - all intermingled in a Wonderful way....

It's pretty intense... - but I think you could handle (and might appreciate) it.........

Hesse is quite thought-provoking, actually.

I guess that's why he causes insomnia.

sigh.

My next bed-side book is gonna be something more boring, dammit......

What's a good "bed-side, go-to-sleep-now" book?

This is a FAMILY board, dammit....!!!!!!!

A boring book?

How about anything written by ** censored - hahahahahaha

Actually any book on a subject you're not interested in will do. For you that may be "What to expect when I'm pregnant" :banana

I just tried that.

And I'll have you know that you have just complicated my problem by a factor of 12.

I am NOT impressed.!

I don't think I'll ever sleep again, thanks to your stupid advice.

Thank you very much, Dammit.

ok - enough of this.

I'm gonna go make a critical analysis of my bedroom ceiling now.

sigh.....

bbchris · Posted: Tue Dec 09, 2003 9:34 am Post subject: Re: uh-oh......

I didn't say that!! How about reading "What to expect when I'm going through Puberty" or "Philately made Simple" or that biography by Hillary Clinton? :wgrin

If you just read "Siddhartha", then you should be in the proper state of mind to wait for sleep to come.

Did you ever read "Steppenwolf"? Sort of the other side of the coin from "Siddhartha". I recommend it.

I've read Siddhartha but not the other...
