The Longest Night

1.59,, 2.25, 3.40, 4.12, dont worry i am not crunching the numbers, nor am i giving you the prediction for the lucky numbers for you to wager, it is now 4.30 am friday , i was vegetating in front of TV set and could not sleep, for the reasons below...

My wife is once again away being back to her hometown 400 odd KMs away and i am left with my two wonderful sons, the problem with me is i cant sleep well if i know that i have to make sure everything is intact for the boys, to make sure i dont oversleep and they too, and i just cant trust the alarm in my handphone.

So throughout the whole night,my sleep was intermittent, tossing around and i just kept looking at the time displayed in the video player. I hate this feeling but then again, my mind kept telling me to stay awake and my body kept telling me to sleep, the tussle only resulted that my mind was mightier than my body, so i had the longest night as of now.

I knew i was to tired to ferry my boys to school,so i called my good friend cum neigbour asking for his assistance to help me to get the boys to school, thank God for Richard.

Looks like my friday has started in a zombie fashion and hopefully once i click off from blogging, i would manage to get some sleep.

5.55 am friday.

P/S : Lonely is the night when i am not with you

  2. good morning Eugene.. i guess morning will not be as good as usual, huh.. no sleep means agitated and fatigue... your body will feel one kind, heavy and mind also not alert.. hey, hope u can catch some sleep now... forget about work.. the mind and body do need rest otherwise, u might end up snapping at your staff or clients.. :)
    so.. do u agree with me if i say that "Man cannot live without a lady?" esp. those who have been married before...
    Cleffairy, agree?

  5. Amboi, amboi, Claire... so cepat say my name, huh? You see, Claire... not many men can live without a woman, but women, can definitely live without men if they want to. You are a good example. While most men will opt to remarry when their spouse dies... woman can go on without one. Agree?

    I definitely agree with you, Claire. That a man needs a woman wif her, but women does not need really need a man with her. :-P

  12. Maybe now that the kids are in school, you'll be able to catch a few hours of sleep. You sound just like me when the babies are only a few weeks old. The difference is, mine was not voluntary, lol!
    Well, since tomorrow is Saturday, hopefully things won't be too bad tonight. Let's also hope you'll get a good rest, ok. X
