Nocturne

These days, Ben and I take turns sleeping. Here are some things I do to stay awake at night when it's my turn to spend some quality time with our girl:

1. Play this brilliant game,


2. listen to Music Through the Night,


3. look at Facebook and wrestle with important decisions like whether I should edit my "political views" info -- from left to far left,


4. eat leftover Halloween candy (namely, Jolly Ranchers),


5. blog (if I can reach the laptop),


6. admire my perfectly sweet little girl,


7. read novels by Jack Finney, and


8. stream Netflix (recently: season 2 of Futurama, season 3 of Eureka, some recent SNL episodes, 84 Charing Cross Road (wonderful!), and a handful of Dolly Parton movies (I love Dolly!). Catching up on years of television and movies is one [dubious] bonus to breastfeeding for fifteen hours a day.
