Middle of a cold night... in Secrets from myself

Four positive degrees Fahrenheit on the bank clock at midnight. Now it's fucking three thirty and I'm wide awake. I usually don't mind insomnia. I figure I'll sleep eventually. And I suppose I will.
BBC is all about Mandela.

I suppose I could get a sudoku to put me to sleep. There's always a chance.

I was thinking of a sleep inducing haiku that is repeated like a mantra.

A good idea

I like brain teasers, but sudoku has never done it for me.

I prefer NYT crosswords but sudokus are more available and they are addictive. This year I practiced giving up stuff and I gave up sudokus for a month. I was so grateful to go back to them when the month was over.

Am I the only wondering how you know what the bank clock showed at midnight? Were you out and about at midnight? Curious minds want to know.

It was minus 26 with wind chill today. Thank goodness the fire drill was cancelled.
I wanted to do a sudoku last night but I marked instead. Good me.

I do easy crosswords when I am up like that. Gets my mind turning in different directions. I don't think I have ever done a sudoku. The other thing I do is listen to podcasts. I particularly like Stuff You Missed in History ones when I can't sleep.

Are you working this weekend?

I struck out on four sudokus in a row. Two of them were started under the influence, so maybe I shouldn't feel bad.
