Is that the time? July 17, 2005
I read the new Harry Potter today. Finished at 11.15pm and went to bed. And didn’t sleep. So now I’m up.
The book isn’t what’s keeping me awake. At least I don’t think so.
It’s the knotty pain in my left shoulder blade and the not being asleep that’s keeping me awake. I’m more awake right now than I’ve been at any other point in the last 48 hours.
My version of the lurgy that’s knocking Mark, and everyone else, around is thus far all about tiredness and grumpyness and extra loud, extra buzzy tinnitus. Which doesn’t explain why I’m awake at 1am.
The latest Harry Potter is better than the last - better edited. It seems very much about coming of age. Becoming either who you want to be or who others want you to be.
Time for another crack at sleep.
