In Wonderland, where I had a busy, full and rather exciting life, I literally had to be dragged out of bed every morning. I couldn't get up. It was as if I had been attacked by the infamous Tse Tse Fly at birth!

Towards the end of my sentence there, I dreaded the morning's rays. Every day became longer than the day before it and I just couldn't summon enough energy to get out of bed. I caught mysterious illnessess - anything, just anything, was fine, as long as I didn't have to spend another day at work.

And my job? hehe.. It was one of those jobs which never ended. You had to be on your toes from the moment you involuntarily opened your eyes, to the minute the lids collapsed on their own sometime close to the morning.

And here, where I have no job or worries or concerns (except those infecting my homeland), I wake up at the crack of dawn.

Why?

Didn't I want to catch up with lost time, with sleep, with relaxation, with being nobody, with losing myself in the crowds and doing silly silly things and laughing until I peed in myself?

Why can't I sleep?

SBG, I have another case, when it's a weekday, I have diffculties getting up, but when I am on leave or on weekends, I sleep late yet only 4 hours of sleep would do! I wake up fresh and roaring! But on a weekday, even if I sleep for 9 hours, I wake up dizzy and feeling like sleeping more!

I need a cuuuure!

You seem homesick for Bahrain. Here is a site with some interesting place in the Gulf.

hahaha .. no ants in my pants I am afraid!!

LIB team.. I know, I know.. even when I was in Bahrain.. I would wake up at the crack of dawn on Friday, being my only day off! It was a depressing state of affairs!!

The cure is .. I am afraid to admit it .. a change of scene. I don't know what you do, but the cause is UR JOB. But then I am in no position to become the oracle, so I will say no more and keep peace!

Pebbles.. I will check the site.. Thanks ;)
