I'm too tired to think of a subject.

I failed at sleeping again. I failed three nights ago, then slept like a champ the night before last, then woke up at 3am (BST) and never got back to sleep. Partly because the grand prix was on at 7am, but mostly because I had restless legs, or leg-nausea as I've taken to thinking of it. I don’t want to get into the habit of not sleeping. I’d be rubbish at it. On the plus side, the exhaustion’s really putting my run-of-the-mill brain fog to shame. I’m mentally negligible as a rule, but today I don’t even think I’d have the energy to run from an assassin. I’d better stay indoors. Actually I’ve already walked three miles today, but still.

I spent the small hours thinking about Patrick Stewart. He deliberately failed his eleven plus because he felt he’d enjoy a secondary modern more than grammar school, and he did. I like that. Shows an impressive degree of self-knowledge for an eleven-year-old. I hate the eleven plus. I can’t believe that was a thing that actually happened.

I wish I were Borg. Borg know how to sleep.
