Up at 7 am today.
Why?
I don't know. I've been asking myself for the last 3 hours. lol. Not really, but it was weird. We just bounced awake. Then we bounced on the bed.
And by "we" I mean Keegan.
And by "bed" I mean the bed and me. I'm like his springboard. And his jungle gym. His Mount Kosciuszkio. His tree. His rock. His everything.
So after he used my nuts to jump off me with one misplaced foot. I was more than up and awake.
Pain can have that effect. You ever been sleepy while in pain? Without medication to knock you out or dull the pain? No. I used to work a lot of long hours, night shift, split shift, weird-ass shifts. When I got sleepy driving home, usually after 12 hour nights or nights/days, all the usual tricks weren't working anymore. Radio up loud, windows down, slapping myself across the face. One day, I thought, what if I gave myself a camel bite. Don't hold back. Just ... BAM..
My eyes watered. My inner thigh was screaming at me. I was awake. More effective than any other technique I ever used.
Anyway, I set up my little man and then set myself up.
I didn't feel cold today, as I was wandering around the house. Even in the ensuite, I wasn't feeling cold, despite the window still being open.
So would the cold shower feel colder today, based on my theory from yesterday...
I do not like being right all the time.. and I'm not, not all the time. But in this particular moment, on this particular day.
Yes. Yes, I was. It was fucking cold and it was still fucking cold 3 minutes in. I persisted of course.
The timer went off at 5 min mark. I need to find out if I can stop it turning my music off. Maybe I should just set it for ten minutes now?
Over 6 minutes today, so happy with that effort considering my brain was screaming at me...
ARE YOU CRAZY??!! WE WERE RIGHT! IT IS COLDER WHEN YOU ARE WARM FIRST! GET OUT! YOU WERE WARM! Why are you doing this to us?
Shut up brain or I'll go back to killing you with beer.
Mmmmm..... beer.
