PLAYLIST: AMBIEN FOR A-HOLES
Our world is burning while it keeps turning and I am fully aware of that issue, but can I get a decent night’s sleep just for once in my friggin’ life?
The roughest obstacle to overcome for me thus far post-surgery is waking up every four hours to make sure I didn’t make pee-pee on my wee-wee. Since that’s the way it’s gotta be from now until my physical body leaves this realm, I can do nothing but deal with it…or just cover our bed in rubber sheets and wear an extra-absorbant pull-up to bed.
As you can imagine, those fleeting moments where I can grab a few hours of slumber are precious, but it’s tough to get back into the Z’s with the constant up-and-down. The well of sleep-inducing podcasts on history and social sciences has run dry and now it is up to me – and me alone – to come up with something that will konk me out good until the alarm goes off and it’s sissy time again.
A few nights ago, I made the playlist below via those horrible, horrible people at Spotify, and I gotta say it’s been helping me to shut down and let the world go blank. Whether you’re caring for a newborn or just a self-absorbed manchild like myself, it’s sure to take you to the REM zone. Although I trust it’ll put you to sleep, I will not guarantee it. The last thing I need is to be sued by a Substacker who Substacks about Substackers Substacking.
