I've Been Sleeping Around





Since October 2008, I've been sleeping around.

I've slept on planes and trains, on boats and in busses, on sticky floors, couches, air-mattresses, no-mattresses, Thai bungalows, African huts, Korean dorm rooms, hostel bunks, fancy hotels, love motels, roach motels, and B&Bs. I've slept out in the sticks in Asia, the suburbs in Canada, the bush in South Africa, and the cul-de-saq where I grew up.

Last night, for the first time in over 27 months, I slept in my own bed.

I finally caved in and went digging through storage to get it.

Let's pause to reflect on the gloriousness of the moment...

... ... ...

You never really feel like you're home until you're sleeping in your own bed.

Ahhh, it's good to FINALLY be home!

..too bad I won't be sleeping here for long...

I'll Plan Ahead

...So that the next time, when I meet a guy in a bar, and he asks me out for coffee the next day, the only clean clothes I have won't be a t-shirt that says,

 "Cheap and cute but you get what you pay for."
Hmm.... 

Well, he should consider it fair warning!

If you are reading this, then I'm impressed... you just did a whole lot of reading!!
