My father had a pretty strict bedtime routine that usually followed a quick check of all the door locks and stove knobs (we didn't know this was called OCD back then). Invariably, he'd be upstairs by 9:30 and nodding off by 10. I used to wonder how anyone could fall asleep that early.
It's now 9:45 p.m., and I've already nodded off twice in the past few hours. The only thing keeping me from heading upstairs to bed is, well, this blog.
Night after night, as I slip into bed, I hear myself declaring that this is the best part of the day. I usually mean it.
I wonder how early my bed time will be in, say, five or 10 years. At 97, my mom is usually in bed by 8:30 and often has trouble staying awake that long.
Such fun times to look forward to.

Wow. 9:45pm is late for me. 5:30am comes awfully early, though.

5:30? Good grief.
