Last night I fell asleep on the couch. I find the couch comfortable enough to rest on for short periods of time, but not for extended periods. I am a little too long for my short couch, and that makes it hard to sleep on. My CPS was really flaring up last night, so I was surprised I fell asleep on the couch. I figure I got 6 hours in, my longest stretch of sleep in a long time. How I slept so long on such an uncomfortable piece of furniture is beyond me. I would try it more often if I knew I wouldn't wake up so sore. (No, I really wouldn't).

The TV was on as well while sleeping. I seem to be able to sleep through noise, but the 4am infomercials must have annoyed my brain enough to wake me up. I wandered to the bathroom, and then thought I would try to rest some more. No deal though. My affected arm and shoulder was too sore to sleep any longer. I figure it was dangling off the couch while sleeping. Well, I turned the TV back on and watched the morning news, got a cup of coffee (decided to get really awake) and checked out the email and then to this site looking at the new posts.

The shoulder was killing me, so I took some meds to help me out. I don't like taking anything unless really necessary, and today is one of those days. I'm thinking the caffiene and pain reliever will cancel each other out as it pertains to sleep, so I am still fairly awake. I'm betting by afternoon, I'll be sleeping again, but not on the couch. Think I'll try the recliner. It's a more comfortable sleeping appliance. And I can also fall asleep to football on TV. Tonight, the bed will be the method of choice.
