Sleep

What can I say? It's a wonderful thing. Today (Friday) I was supposed to have a meeting with my supervisor about my weekly progress and plan for the next week at 9:30am. Unfortunately, on Thursday I borrowed Mary Balogh's *Slightly Dangerous* and started reading it on the bus home.

(Now, people may scoff at romance books, and I must admit a lot of the criticism is sometimes justified, but one thing I dont agree with the *Women's Porn* tag. If you're looking for porn, there are far "better" things you could be reading.)

Anyway, I was rivetted by the author's prose and the development of the relationship between the hero and the heroine to the point that when I started reading it after finishing the day's work on my thesis....I ended up sleeping at 3:30am. Needless to say, when I arrived at uni at 9am, I was not in a great condition. When I went to ask her to start the meeting early so I could crawl into the library to sleep, she said she had to cancel.

After that, I crawled into my Beloved Rowdy and slept among others for over 3 hours. It was wonderful. I hope everyone else's day was just as good!
